The Maya middle preclassic period began around 1000 BC. During this same time in other parts of the World, David becomes king of the ancient Israelites and the Iron Age begins for much of Eurasia. Across the Pacific ocean, the ancient Japanese begin to cultivate rice. Everywhere in the World cultures were thriving.
This was the period of time when the roots of a complex Maya society began to steadily form and they became a more advanced people.

Their settlements grew into cites and as their needs changed they built accordingly.
They were now building canals and irrigation
