Best explains why the maya built cisterns

Social Studies
1 answer:
WITCHER [35]3 years ago
7 0

The answer is - droughts.

The region in which the Maya civilization existed, even though in general had a stable climate throughout the year, occasionally, on every few years, was experiencing a long drought. The droughts in this period of time could have been fatal because they were destroying much of the plants that were providing food for the people, and also lack of freshwater. So the Maya came out with a smart method, they started to build cisterns, and when there was rain the cisterns were filled with water that can be used later on when there's crises for it.

What do you think was the most important outcome of the Agricultural Revolution and why? Use examples to support your answer.
jonny [76]

The contemporary <u>agricultural revolution</u> occurred with the increase of technologies to the techniques applied until then.   The objective was to increase production and productivity. The results were obtained through techniques such as crop rotation, seed diversification and equalization of space for livestock.

In England, the law that allowed the purchase of public fields by the upper bourgeoisie was passed. The act forced the migration of small farmers to cities.

These workers would later be the labor force that would supply the factories during the Industrial Revolution.
