The Maya were influenced by other towns but also developed their own architectural styles, like the "Puuc," known for its characteristic false vault.
The Maya combined creative originality with the perfection of styles that were developed by the villages they made contact with - whether they were invaders or neighbors. The arc, or false vault, was an exclusive element of their constructions.
