How come did the Mayan civilization disappeared?

Question

How come did the Mayan civilization disappeared?

Answer 1

There's a few theories out there:

Systemic ecological collapse — the Maya over-exploited the land and caused environmental problems for themselves;

political/warfare — a cultural theory holding that the elite fought too much and provided poor leadership; and

drought caused by climate change.

Answer 2

There is still Mayans in Chiapas (Southern Mexico) and Guatemala.

Answer 3

LOL! Seriously you think the Mayas have disappeared. They are all over parts of Mexico and Belize! They pretty much have kept as much of their culture in tact too.
