Give me one example of a similarity between the Mayans and the Egyptians or the Mesopotamians.

The Mesopotamians and Egyptians were polytheistic, which meant they believed in multiple gods and goddesses, and they were based on nature. Both civilizations believed that there were gods of the sky, earth, freshwater, and the sun, as well as gods dedicated to human emotions and the underworld.

either b) they were often feared and despised by other native cultures. or

c) their obsession allowed them to coexist with many other native cultures because of their peaceful nature.
