Answer 1

Answer: Both

Explanation:

Answer 2

Both the Mayan and Egyptian pyramids are similar in that both civilizations constructed their pyramids using superior knowledge of mathematics, engineering and astronomy.

The Mayan civilization had 2 types of pyramids they constructed. One type was intended for human sacrifice. This type of pyramid was meant to be climbed to the top where the sacrifice would take place. The other kind was never intended for human occupation but rather served as a sacred place for their deities. Often the steps are too steep to be scaled.

Some of the Mayan pyramids were also used for navigation as they towered over the jungle canopy, where the purpose of the Egyptian pyramids were either used as a burial chamber, or some other unknown purpose, depending on who you ask.

The major difference between the two types of pyramids, is in the construction. The structures created later in the Egyptians dynasties were constructed with kind of almost flat face on each side, going from the ground straight up. They were more of a polyhedron with a flat polygon base and triangular faces connecting the base to a common point. While the Mayan pyramids resemble the ones constructed in the earlier Egyptian dynasties which were considered a “step pyramid”, with small platforms that step in concession all the way to the top. Making it look like a giant staircase. The pyramids in Egypt do not have an outer staircase. However in the very early dynasties the Egyptians used the step pyramid method.
