War may also have caused the Maya to abandon some of their cities.For example，it is thought that a rival(敌对) city，Caracol，may have once conquered Tikal.100 years later Tikal returned to power，and the ruling family built temples to honour its victory.However，by the end of the 800s，Tikal was no longer powerful，and its inhabitants left.Although we do not know for certain why many ancient Maya abandoned their cities，today’s Maya may provide us with clues.The modern Maya still live on the lands in Mexico and Guatemala that their ancestors occupied.Many present­day Maya still have ancient beliefs and farming practices，and studying these may help us discover more about ancient Maya culture.
