From what I remember from the classic period, the Maya dug out large segments of fertile mud from the wetlands and used it to build good growing soil for terraced crops. As the drought periods became longer the efforts began to fail.

Indeed it appears to have had similarities elsewhere as native America's further into the interior did similar in dry periods.

Ancient worshipers wrote praises of Gods as graffiti there wishes would have been fulfilled!There were lot of pottery with mummified animals inside and written wish descriptions outside,with praises of right God!Only difference had had here:Religious language was one,people's language would have been other.Graffiti would have been people's language and signs.

This may also be an example of a theology in their exuberence to defend it...defame another.... as blasphemous. And even an attempt to exorcise it away thru the graffiti. We will have to wait and see.
