Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During and following the Terminal Classic Period of Maya history, Maya culture was reconfigured, with large regal-ritual centers constructed to the north. This period saw the decline of the Classic Maya civilization in the Southern Lowlands and the rise of new centers of power to the north, such as Chichén Itzá and Tula. The Maya culture did not disappear, nor did it expand into the Mexican highlands or the southeastern United States.
