Mexico’s ancient civilizations left a legacy over the land: great cities crowned by impressive pyramids, decorated temples, sacrificial sites with savage stories and even ball-game courts. Sites which mesmerised the Spanish who arrived in Mexico in 1519, and continue to mesmerise millions today. The country can boast with ease the most UNESCO World Heritage Sites of the Americas.
The ancient civilizations were tremendously sophisticated; Mayans made notable achievements in Astronomy as well as devising the only known fully developed writing system of the pre-Columbian Americas. Their cities and its sculptures remain testament to Mayan eminence, with monuments that were built to celebrate celestial happenings and hieroglyphics still scrawled along the walls.
While the Mayans, thriving roughly between 250AD and 900AD, encompassed south-eastern Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador and western Honduras, the Aztecs were based in what is now central Mexico, between the 14th and 16th centuries.
