| | Mesoamerica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Mesoamerican is the adjective generally used to refer to that group of Pre-Columbian cultures. | | | This refers to an environmental area occupied by an assortment of ancient cultures that shared religious beliefs, art, architecture, and technology that made them exceptional in the Americas for three thousand years. | | | Mesoamerica's economy and geopolitics benefited from extensive use of a lingua franca, the Nahuatl language, at least since the 7th century, and perhaps even going as far back as 2,000 years. |
