Mesoamerican offerings
Mesoamerican offerings were ritual gifts made to deities in ancient cultures like the Maya and Aztec. These offerings often included food, flowers, incense, and valuable items such as jade or gold. They were intended to honor the gods, seek favor, or ensure good harvests and prosperity.
The practice of making offerings was an essential part of religious ceremonies and was often conducted at temples or sacred sites. In some cases, human sacrifices were also included as a way to appease the gods, reflecting the deep spiritual beliefs and societal values of these civilizations.
