Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The ancient Maya lived deep within the tropical rainforest, which was a source of food, medicine and building materials. Between 2400 and 2000 BCE, small groups began to regularly plant fields in the jungle, increasingly switching to crops for subsistence.
Detailed explanation-2: -Classic Maya civilization grew to some 40 cities, including Tikal, Uaxactún, Copán, Bonampak, Dos Pilas, Calakmul, Palenque and Río Bec; each city held a population of between 5, 000 and 50, 000 people.
