Big Writing 2

There were many great great empires in world history. Two of my favorites are Maya and Inca. These two civilizations are similar in some ways and different in some ways.
    They are similar because they both made handmade stuff.   The Egyptians and the Inca had great respect for their dead. The Inca always buried their dead facing East and in a crouched position. The Egyptians buried their dead in tombs and left them gifts
    Another reason they are similar is they both handled the dead carefully. For example, the Maya would do spiritual ceremony's.The Inca  would also do ceremonies but they knew the Spanish were coming so they just dropped them in the hole but did not cover them up. They did this because they knew the Spanish would kill them if they did not hurry up.
   They both are also different in some ways. One way they were different is that the Incas wore more clothing than the Maya did.
   Another reason they are different is the Inca fought and the Maya didn't.
    In conclusion  they are alike because Maya do dead ceremonies  and Inca do dead ceremonies too. Also you can see they are different because  Maya barely wore clothing and the Inca wore much more. No matter what, they were surely two of the greatest civilizations ever.
