1 The Civilizations of America advanced societies were developing in isolation in the Americas While classical civilizations were developing in the Mediterranean & Asia
2 Text Title During the Neolithic Revolution, these nomads settled into farming villages; Some of which became advanced civilizations During the Ice Age, prehistoric nomads migrated across the land bridge between Asia & America
3 The Olmecs The Olmecs are often called the mother culture because they influenced other Mesoamerican societies The first American civilization were people known as the Olmec in an area known as Mesoamerica
4 The Olmecs developed a strong trade network in Mesoamerica The Olmecs that brought them great wealth The Olmecs used their wealth to build large stone monuments & pyramids to honor their leaders & gods Olmec trade allowed them to spread their culture to other Mesoamericans For unknown reasons, the Olmec civilization declined by 400 B.C. but their cities & symbols influenced later cultures, especially the Mayans
5 Government: Mayans were divided into individual city-states ruled by king-gods While the Olmecs were in decline around 400 B.C., the Mayans were evolving & borrowed many Olmec ideas The Mayans
6 The Mayans Economy: The Mayan economy was based on trade & farming maize, beans
7 Society: (1) Kings (dynasties) (2) Nobles, priests (3) warriors (4) Merchants, artisans (5) Peasants The Mayans
8 The Mayans Religion: Mayans were polytheistic & offered their blood, food, & sometimes human sacrifices to please the gods
9 Technology: Mayans invented a writing based on pictures called glyphs, an accurate 365-day calendar, & advanced temples
10 The Mayans Around 800 A.D., the Mayans mysteriously declined perhaps due to warfare among Mayan city-states & over-farming
11 After the decline of the The Aztecs Mayans, the Aztecs were developing in present-day Mexico Around 1200, Aztecs arrived in Mexico & built their city Tenochtitlan in 1325
12 Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan
13 The Aztecs Government: The Aztecs formed a massive empire, controlled it through 38 provinces, & received tribute from conquered peoples
14 The Aztecs Economy: They survived on tribute & farming; They built floating gardens (chinampas)
15 The Aztecs Society: (1) Kings (2) Nobility (3) Commoners (4) Slaves Religion: Aztecs worshipped many gods, especially the sun god & made thousands of human sacrifices each year
16 Technology: Like the Mayans, the Aztecs developed an accurate calendar & built advanced temples
17 The Aztecs But, the true demise of the Aztecs came when the Spanish discovered America & conquered the Aztecs Around 1500 A.D., the Aztecs began to decline; A century of brutal rule over the provinces & millions of human sacrifices led to revolts
18 The Incas While the Aztecs ruled Mexico, the Incas began to dominate the area of the Andes Mountains of South America Many Incan cities like Machu Picchu & Cuzcu were built in the mountains
19 ? Government: The Incas Like the Aztecs, the Incas built a vast empire which included 80 provinces But, the Incas ruled with tolerance & unified their empire with roads, schools, & a common language
20 The Incas? Economy: The Incan gov t controlled the economy & required all citizens to farm for the good of the empire
21 ? The Incas Religion: The Inca were polytheistic & offered llamas & food (but not humans) to the gods Society: (1) King (2) Nobility (3) Ayllu (commoners)
22 Technology: Inca innovations included quipu, a means of record keeping involving knotted ropes as well as an extensive system of roads & suspension bridges
23 ? The Incas In the 1520s, a civil war divided & weakened the Incan Empire; Ten years later Spanish conquistadors conquered the empire
