Best Answer

Mayan people believed in many gods which was called "Polytheism."

Mayan religion was characterized by the worship of nature gods, especially the gods of sun, rain and corn, the importance of astronomy and Astrology, and the building of elaborate pyramidical temples, to get closer to the gods and from the top of which took place rituals of human sacrifice.

None. Tey did not worship the sun or the moon or anything. They used the facets of nature to guide them. The Mayans practiced what we would call medicine, philosophy and astrology in their own respect. They had no digital technology, but their ways were effective. An interesting piece that I read in "The Mysteries Of The Unexplained" is that the Olmecs taught the Dogon Tribe (In Africa) about our solar system and that of Sirius A and Sirius B around 4000 BC!
