The Maya

17x48cm. Full sleeve.

Whereas the Aztecs led a more brutal, warlike lifestyle, with frequent human sacrifices, Mayans favored scientific endeavors such as mapping the stars.

Sure, the Maya messed up their whole 2012 doomsday calculations which was a disappointment to many of us. This made Facebook unbearable for a month because of conspiracy aunts and lead to the production of a very mediocre movie. However, they also deserve to be remembered for their contributions to civilization and for building an empire that lasted 3 millennia.
