Their religion revolves around the cyclical nature of time
They believed that heaven had 13 different layers, and the underworld had 9 layers
Gods weren't distinct, they merged with eachother regularly; the Maize (Corn) God was a central diety
Animal and human sacrifices were made if something bad was coming
The Mayans practiced "bloodletting". Ex: pulling thorn-studded ropes through tongues
To them, the night sky was a window showing all supernatural worlds
