    Extractions: The Dresden Codex contains almanacs, accountings of days, predictions, tables of eclipses and movements of the planet Venus, as well as prophecies. The Maya are probably the best-known of the classical civilizations of Mesoamerica. Originating in the Yucatán around 2600 B.C., they rose to prominence around A.D. 250 in present-day southern Mexico, Guatemala, northern Belize and western Honduras. Building on the inherited inventions and ideas of earlier civilizations such as the Olmec, the Maya developed astronomy, calendrical systems and hieroglyphic writing. The Maya were noted as well for elaborate and highly decorated ceremonial architecture, including temple-pyramids, palaces and observatories, all built without metal tools. They were also skilled farmers, clearing large sections of tropical rain forest and, where groundwater was scarce, building sizeable underground reservoirs for the storage of rainwater. The Maya were equally skilled as weavers and potters, and cleared routes through jungles and swamps to foster extensive trade networks with distant peoples. Around 300 B.C., the Maya adopted a hierarchical system of government with rule by nobles and kings. This civilization developed into highly structured kingdoms during the Classic period, A.D. 200-900. Their society consisted of many independent states, each with a rural farming community and large urban sites built around ceremonial centres. It started to decline around A.D. 900 when - for reasons which are still largely a mystery - the southern Maya abandoned their cities. When the northern Maya were integrated into the Toltec society by A.D. 1200, the Maya dynasty finally came to a close, although some peripheral centres continued to thrive until the Spanish Conquest in the early sixteenth century.

50. History, Myth, And Migration In Mesoamerica
    of the Polynesian Race Its Origins and Migrations, and the ancient history of the 1980Lowland to Highland Mexicanization Processes in Southern mesoamerica.  
    http://www.ku.edu/~hoopes/aztlan/History.htm
    
    Extractions: Two features stand out sharply in nearly all theories of origins (and there have been thousands of them) that have been put forward at every opportunity. These theories have a genealogical character and they incorporate some kind of migration. All peoples originated but few seem to have originated where they actually were when speculation on their origins took place. (Henige 1982:91) As in most cultures other than our own, myth and history were not clearly distinguished (Florescano 1994). Recently, the reality of the history/myth separation, and the value of making it, has been questioned by some, who feel that since the ancient sources made no distinction between the two types of information, history is always coded into myth and inseparable from it (e.g., Bricker 1981, Lincoln 1990). This perspective is tangentially supported by modern interpretations of the material, some of which are barely recognizable as having been derived from the same sources (witness Lincoln's [1990] comparison of Roys' and Edmonson's translations of the Book of Chilam Balam of Chumayel, in which not even the proper names are the same). Nonetheless, this paper argues that it is possible to separate out that which probably did occur, or "history," from subsequent manipulation of that event, or "myth."
