Tenochtitlan, the capital city of the Aztecs had one main aqueduct that ran twenty miles. It flowed in two channels, one being cleaned and maintained, and one to keep a constant flow of water. It flowed into public fountains where it was then delivered in clay pots to the workers and civilians. The Mayan calendar was extremely accurate, and the calculations of Maya priests were so precise that their calendar correction is 10,000th of a day more exact than the standard calendar the world uses today(Gregorian calendar), of all the ancient calendar systems, the Maya and other Mesoamerican systems are the most complex and intricate. Scholars now recognize that writing may have independently developed in at least four ancient civilizations: Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, and lowland areas of Mesoamerica. More than a millennium before it was introduced into Europe as part of the Hindu-Arabic number system the Maya were using a zero as a placeholder in their calendar system. The Maya (and the earlier cultures from which they inherited their number and calendar systems) were using a zero in this way long before it came into use in European mathematics, and probably even before its use in South-East Asia. Mayan mathematics were more advanced than the Greeks and 15th century Europeans when it came to mathematics.

      It probably wasn’t in Babylon. Something like it was probably in Nineveh, the earlier Assyrian capital. Nineveh was called in ancient sources Babylon or New Babylon, so that’s probably where the confusion came. Still, Mesopotamian culture and architecture fascinates me too.
