How advanced was Mayan civilization in smelting metals and creating its own characters?

The earth has experienced billions of years since its formation, while human civilization has only tens of thousands of years. Although creatures appeared on the earth hundreds of millions of years ago, most of them are not intelligent creatures, so in the face of existing science, human beings are the most advanced civilization on the earth from ancient times to the present. However, human civilization is also different.

When people mention ancient civilizations, they will first mention four ancient countries, including ancient China, ancient Egypt, ancient India and ancient Babylon. Although some of these civilizations disappeared in the long river of history, some of them have passed through the long river of history and passed down to this day, such as ancient China. Although these four ancient countries represent the ancient civilizations of mankind, in fact, in addition to these four civilizations, Mayan civilization is also an ancient civilization that people talk about.

Many people have heard of Mayan civilization, but it is not as long-standing and well-known as the other four civilizations, but because of Mayan prophecy. The most famous Mayan prophecy is "20 12 doomsday". At that time, this prophecy caused a sensation in the world, and some people even began to study Noah's Ark. However, when 20 12 was brought, the end of the world did not come true, but this did not reduce the influence of Mayan prophecy.

Because in people's cognition, there are five Mayan prophecies, and the first four have all been realized, when the fifth doomsday prophecy was released, the whole world was in turmoil. Although the fifth prophecy did not come true, it made most people know about this ancient civilization-Maya civilization, which was deeply hidden in the tropical rain forest.

Mayan civilization is an ancient civilization, but it can predict what will happen in the future, so when the Mayan prophecy is known, scientists began to explore the Mayan civilization, because for human beings, the Mayan civilization is mysterious, and even unknown secrets are hidden in it.

Through the research of scientists and archaeologists, the related knowledge of Mayan civilization gradually appeared in people's field of vision. After archaeological discovery, Mayan civilization is the same civilization as Mexico and Panama, so it is also called tropical rainforest civilization. Because Mayan civilization is a civilization formed by several city-States, it is also divided into three stages, namely, pre-classical period, classical period and post-classical period.

The pre-classical period is actually the formation period of Mayan civilization. During this period, the Mayans made achievements in agriculture, astronomy and architecture. When the Mayan culture reached its peak, it reached what people call the classical period. After the arrival of the classical period, the civilizations such as astronomy and mathematics in Mayan culture reached their peak, which was also the heyday of Mayan civilization. The classical period is followed by the post-classical period, which is the decline period.

Because the Mayan civilization was invaded by Spain and other countries at that time, the Mayan civilization eventually declined and disappeared. Although the Mayan civilization didn't last long, the various inventions produced by the Mayan civilization still shocked people. Because through the investigation of archaeologists, it is found that Mayan culture has traces of smelting metals, as well as self-created three-dimensional figures, as well as various mathematical calendars and astronomical calendars. Combined with the current data, many things of Mayan civilization are incredible.

Although the ancient Mayan civilization has disappeared now, the Mayan civilization, like ancient China, has a lot of knowledge and culture handed down, which is worth pondering today. Therefore, the decline of civilization is not a real disappearance, because those valuable inventions and discoveries will remain in the future, helping and alerting mankind in every era.
