What was a common team shared by the Mayan and Aztec civilizations

1 answer

One common team shared by the Mayan and Aztec civilizations was the ballgame, also known as Mesoamerican ballgame or ulama. This ancient sport, played in specially designated ball courts, involved two opposing teams who would try to score points by hitting a rubber ball with their hips, elbows, knees, or other body parts. The objective was to keep the ball in play and prevent it from touching the ground or going out of bounds. The ballgame held great cultural and symbolic significance for both civilizations and was often associated with religious ceremonies and rituals.
