Being a Maya, Aztec, or Inca would be very difficicult and different for my way of life, but if I had to choose one, I would deffinately be a Maya. The Maya people had so many graeat accomplishments in their time. They were the first to create a 365 day calender. They were able to predict eclipses, even though they didn't have a telescope. They even learned about the cycles of the moon.
The Maya empire's decline was gradual and generally peaceful. But, in the Aztec and Inca emppires, they were overtaken by Spanish and slowly killed off by foreign diseases. Although the Maya still did some things that I personally would not approve of, like human sacrifice, I still think that life as a Maya wouldn't be too bad.
