The Maya civilization is famous for its architecture. Many city-states built large palaces, pyramids, and other public buildings that are still standing today. The buildings were covered with carvings and statues to honor their gods as well as to commemorate their kings."]]> 2017-02-17 19:07:17 UTC https://padlet.com/deshark2005/xi0gpl1fqg4p/wish/154676644 deshark2005 https://padlet.com/deshark2005/xi0gpl1fqg4p/wish/154678290   We think that the architecture is more important than then the number system, trade routes, and the calendar because they built their religion off their temples and their architecture also led to our modern day houses.

They used them as temples for sacrifices and consulting the gods. They where also used as observatories to see what the gods where doing.

Maya architecture is important, as it is one of the few aspects of Maya life that is still available for study.
