Archaeologists dig into ruins to find clues to what life was like in a past civilization. American historian Hiram Bingham had the luck to discover Machu Picchu in Peru, on July 24, 1911. As a result, he studied the Incas in more detail than others had done before. Probably the only thing better to understand the past than finding a bunch of artifacts and documents would be to travel back in time.

That’s exactly what you will do for this assessment! Well, in your imagination you will. Imagine you could go back in time and live among one of these Mesoamerican groups: the Maya, the Aztec, or the Inca. You can choose only one, and you should think very carefully about your choice. Consider what life was like in each civilization and what roles people had in each society.

Steps:

Determine the civilization you would choose to live in—Aztec, Inca, or Maya. Write a complete paragraph explaining your choice, using at least three facts from the lesson about life in that society.
Write a complete paragraph explaining why you did not choose the other two civilizations. Use at least one fact from the lesson for each civilization in your explanation.

Answer:

I would choose the Aztecs because the Aztecs were known for their agricultural achievements, which included farming all accessible land, establishing irrigation, clearing marshes, and constructing artificial islands in lakes. They invented hieroglyphic writing, devised a complicated calendar system, and constructed world-famous pyramids and temples. The empire had nearly 6 million people which would mean it was somewhat like a city today, full of people to meet and make friends with. Because of the Olmec influence, I know it is a very advanced empire for its time. Even tho some of the religions involved human sacrifice, not all did which makes the civilization open to having other religions

the reason I didn't choose the other two civilizations is that the Incas were very separated due to ethnic reasons. meaning they could work out the problem. they also have human sacrifice as a part of their religion, which goes against all my morals so I definitely wouldn't be comfortable living there. the Incas also had very strict social classes which was never a good sign because, they will treat people in the lower class very poorly and give all the goods to the people in the higher class meaning there is little to nothing left for the people in the lower class to afford, buy, eat, and more. The Mayans didn't reach my expectations because there were only 2 million people in the empire which is still a lot but it is still very little compared to 6 million. The Mayans also had human sacrifice and blood-letting as a part of their religion which again is not ethical to me.
