Answer:
it prevents all sleeper or hideout plays and prevents a shift from occurring.
<u>Explanation</u>:
I inferred this question is referring to <em>flag football </em>game rules. Interestingly, flag football unlike other sports requires a team of seven players with a minimum of 5 to continue a game.
By allowing seven men on the line of scrimmage prevented hideout plays from unknown players, and since only one offensive player could be in motion it also prevented a shift from occurring.
The main factor was the utilization of raised field agriculture. They would build these fields that had been artificially raised to a certain height along a flowing water source (mostly rivers but occasionally streams as well in some cases). When tropical weather patterns would cause said water sources to flood, instead of washing away the crops, it would act as irrigation for the raised fields. Securing a steady food source allowed the Mayans to support a large civilization in the tropical regions they called home.
