What are some differences between Mayan and Egyptian?

First ... about 2500 years! Egyptian civilization settled in the Nile Valley. Nomads along the Nile River started getting absorbed in permanent rural areas and towns around BC 5500 BC. Maya civilization began around the Yucatan peninsula around 3000 BC. There was no obvious river. Agriculture in Egypt has been at a very high level for a long time as floods occur annually in the Nile Valley and floods washed away from the central part of Africa have been added in recent periods. People do not truly understand the duration of Mayan farming until about 900 AD.

The pyramids are built in both cultures, but the pyramids are very different. The Mayan pyramid is basically the foundation of the top temple / observatory. The Egyptian pyramid is an artificially created mountain that protects the king's grave. "Royal" ruins were discovered in Maya's pyramid, but these ruins are still quite different, almost equivalent to the noble tomb of the Westminster Abbey, commemorating the noble burial in the sacred place .

I developed a language written both civilizations, but glyph and astronomy science are very different. Both have quite complicated mathematics, many of which I think we can not fully understand, but use the base 10 system Egyptian, the base A 5 system including the concept of zero and the base 20 system Maya system

As early as 4000 BC the Egyptians used copper tools for complex metallurgy. The Mayans used gold and silver as accessories, but the metallurgical method of weapons and tools rarely until the end of the Maya era, and their culture was based on obsidian cutting tools .

There are burdocks for Egyptians, horses as grazing animals, and beasts with heavy burdens, but the Mayans do not have this equivalent. The only domesticated animals in Mayan culture are edible animals, turkeys, muscovy ducks, dogs and gold bees. Egyptians keep a variety of livestock, from heavy cows to ferrets.

Egypt wheels are used for tanks and trolleys.

Maya and Egyptians have very different agriculture. Maya people have abundant food. Nature provides trees, animals, crops and water to Maya. Nature is less generous to the Egyptians. Their land may be the opposite of Maya's land. They do not have much food, they do not have too many animals. The climate zone is also quite different. Maya people have a warm climate and a humid environment. The Egyptians had to go through the harsh and hot sun and the sandstorm

You can see that Maya and Egyptian culture have many things in common. However, there are some major differences. Maya's religion is not addicted to the beliefs of the afterlife like the Egyptians. Their pyramids were built for God and can serve as memorials to dead rulers and pastors. The Egyptians built a pyramid for the dead. The great spirit whose buildings are buried is used for other lives. There are also visual differences. Most Mayan pyramids are shorter than Giza's pyramids. They are not permanently sealed but can be used by pastors or officials. The main difference is that Maya placed the temple on top of the pyramid. The stairs go from the ground to the top of the pyramid. Then people will think they will be closer to God. In Egypt, only Pharaohs are thought to be approaching God, so the huge building that reaches the sky is a ladder to Pharaoh's heaven.

There are differences in the way Central American and Egyptians build pyramids and use them. Egyptian pyramids are the tombs of their king, pharaoh, Maya and the aztec pyramid. The Egyptians built a pyramid with no visible entrance Egyptian pyramids have a square base except for the Third Dynasty terrace example. The Egyptians only used stone cutting and stone cutting to build and decorate the pyramids. The Egyptian quarry is 100 miles from the construction site. The Egyptians built a strong pyramid as they believed that their Pharaohs were Gods, so the pharaoh's ground ruins were sacred and we must protect the human world forever. The Egyptians divided the pyramids into three parts. It was surrounded by a packing block surrounded by a very carefully cut casing block placed on the stone, with a stepped section in the center. These three parts are built for each layer. Egyptian pyramid construction method gives pyramid durability
