5 Ancient Artifacts Archaeologists are scientists who search for artifacts so they can learn more about ancient places and the people who lived there in the past. They make inferences and draw conclusions about the meaning of the artifacts to figure out how or why the items were used by a group of people. Dig through these clues to learn more about the ancient Maya culture. Part 1: Match each artifact with the fact about Maya culture that best describes it. Write the letter that matches on the line. ARTIFACT: MAYA FACT: 1. cacao pot A. an instrument used to grind maize 1 2. metate B. highly decorated glazed pottery used for trade 3. arrowhead C. dental fillings often made of jade and usually reserved for the Maya elite 4. scepter D. an item used to communicate with the gods 5. ballcourt marker E. a vessel used to hold a sacred food 2 6. stingray spines F. protective wear used by Maya warriors 7. tooth inlays G. a staff used by a Maya king 8. shell goggles H. a circular feature that established a dividing line between teams in Maya ball games 9. incense burner I. instruments used for bloodletting 10. plumbate pot J. a weapon made from obsidian, a volcanic glass Part 2: Make inferences about how the ancient Maya used the artifacts above.

6 Temple in Tikal Ancient Architecture The Maya began building their great temples and plazas more than 2,000 years ago. Imagine how difficult it was to build such amazing structures without the use of modern tools, wheeled vehicles, or pack animals. The Temple of the Grand Jaguar in Tikal, Guatemala, is a step pyramid with nine levels. Some experts say that each step represented a layer of the underworld. This temple is also called Temple of Ah Cacao, which means Temple of King Chocolate. Part 1: Use this grid to draw the side view of a step pyramid that has nine levels. For example, the top level has one square, the second has three squares, the third has five squares, and so on. Part 2: Now picture each level of your step pyramid one level at a time as seen from above. Figure out how many stone squares you ll need to make each level by completing the chart. Top (Level 1) top (Level 2) Level Dimensions Squares 1 1 x 1 1 square
