Fall of Maya

I believe the fall of the Maya was because of malnutrition, anemia, and starvation. I think what happened was that every year the crops became lesser and lesser just like it quoted in the text on the website we looked at, and then people wanted to get more food so they would farm more and over-farm the lands. This ruined the soil and many starved to death and then many others got anemia caused by the malnutrition of lack of iron because of everyone over-farming. Everyone then lost their rulers and people almost didn't know what to do.
