Who made these? Where did they live? Chac Mool statue Maya hieroglyphs Maya Pyramid

The Maya were a group of people who lived in Central America. Their society developed between around 2,000 BC and 900 AD. They built many large cities and amazing pyramids like the one in Chichen Itza. They knew a lot about the universe, the environment and the weather. We also know that they were very good farmers.

The Maya liked to talk about the future. They made huge stone “calendars” with dates more than a thousand years in the future. On one calendar, the last date was 22 December 2012, so some people were worried on that date because they thought the world was going to end! Some people believe they predicted these things as well:

1 “Temperatures will rise very quickly in the twenty- first century. This will happen because of the sun but also because of pollution caused by people. The ice will slowly disappear in the North and South Poles.” 2 “A huge rock travelling through space will hit Earth. It will probably destroy life on our planet.” Do you think these predictions could be right? Or can people stop these things happening?
