You will find out why Maya (out of all the different tribes that existed in the region at the time) have captured the imagination of the West so much.

You learn about their trading routes and rivalries with another famous Mesoamerican tribe-the Aztecs. The book will go into the decline of the Maya civilization and how their rivalries with the Aztecs aided the victory of the Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century, led by the famous Spaniard Hern�n Cort�s.
