A) both were polytheistic.

Explanation:

This is one of the similarities between the Mayan and the Aztec civilizations. The Aztec Empire was located in central Mexico, in what is now Mexico City. The Mayan Empire, on the other hand, was located in Southern Mexico and parts of Central America. Both of these cultures had similar religious beliefs, and even some of the same gods. They were polytheistic, which means that they believed in several gods simultaneously. However, there was a deity who was considered the most important one, this was the "feathered snake" (Quetzalcoatl for the Aztecs, and Kukulkan for the Mayans). Both cultures practiced human sacrifice in honour of this god.
