As part of our ongoing series of historical video-maps, we present ‘Ancient Mesoamerica, Every Year’ by YouTube creator Ollie Bye. Beginning in 1600 BC at the dawn of the Olmec Civilization and continuing until the full conquest of Mesoamerica by the Spanish Empire in 1697 AD, the following video details the rise and fall of a succession of Central American civilizations lasting over one thousand years, including the Mayan and Toltec Empires.
