Collapse

  • Collapse Over Time: - The Maya civilization didn't disappear suddenly. It took a long time, around 200 years, for things to change. Imagine it like a gradual decline rather than a sudden stop(Medina- Elizalde, 2012).

  • Drought's Big Role: - Drought, or really long periods without enough rain, played a huge part (Marx, 2017). It made things harder for the Maya because there wasn't as much water. Think of it like your favorite game getting tougher and tougher (Marx, 2017).
