MAYAN CIVILIZATION WAS ESTABLISHED BY MAYA DANAVA - FATHER IN LAW OF LORD RAVANA OF SRI LANKA . Shown is Pyramid of social class similiar to varna system of vedic Bharata .The Maya had 3 main classes: royalty, the wealthy class, and the poor class. The social pyramid had priests on top, followed by the nobles, the wealthy, the commoners and low-level govern officers. On the bottom were slaves and servants. The Maya is a Mesoamerican civilization, noted for the only known fully developed written language of the pre-Columbian Americas, as well as for its art, architecture, and mathematical and astronomical systems. Initially established during the Pre-Classic period (c. 2000 BC to AD 250), according to the Mesoamerican chronology, many Maya cities reached their highest state of development during the Classic period (c. AD 250 to 900), and continued throughout the Post-Classic period until the arrival of the Spanish. Maya influence can be detected in Honduras, Belize, Guatemala, and western El Salvador to as far away as central Mexico, more than 1,000 km (620 mi) from the central Maya area. Scholars continue to discuss when this era of Maya civilization began. Discoveries of Maya occupation at Cuello, Belize have been carbon dated to around 2600 BCE. The people built monumental structures. The Maya calendar, which is based on the so-called Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, begins on a date equivalent to 11 August 3114 BC. In Mexico when you see the ruins of Mayan civilization, you will be astounded. They rose to fame around 900 AD. Now there is not more than 3.5 million Mayans in the world. They do not know how their civilization lost the glory. They are known to be an intelligent race; they built several beautiful structures including pyramids. Their pyramids are present as far as in St. Louis, Missourie in the USA. The parampara is lost, there is disconnect between their past and the people. They are now made to believe that they were primitive culture who used make human sacrifices to rain god for every little trivia. They have ruins of this ball game that can only be hit using feet, elbows and waist, but again they have been made to believe that the loosing team captain had to be sacrificed after the match. Not only did they loose the parampara of their own history, their history has been distorted to make them look inferior and primitive. In one centel (water pond) in Chichnetza one Christian priest went and postulated that children were sacrificed in that well by Mayans. That is the truth now. Every one else has to prove otherwise. Several divers have been inside the well and not found remains of children. But, then there are theories of what might have happened and why there is no bones of children. No body asks why the certain priest thought that children were sacrificed.
