Ball courts in Mayan ruins

Explanation:

The Olmec civilization flourished in the pre-classical period (2000B.C. to 200 B.C), while the Mayans did it in the classical period (200 B.C. to 800A.D.). Though there were exchanges an influences, it is unlikely that both civilizations had a constant commercial exchange.
