In ancient Mayan civilization, kitchens were an integral part of daily life. While glass-front cabinet drawers were not used during this time, Mayan kitchens were designed to be practical and efficient. Mayans used various storage solutions to keep their kitchen organized. They had wooden shelves and clay pots to store their cooking utensils, pottery, and food items. The kitchen was often located near the courtyard or garden, allowing easy access to fresh ingredients. Mayan kitchens had a hearth for cooking, and they used a variety of cooking techniques, including grilling, boiling, and steaming. The Mayans had a diverse diet, consisting of corn, beans, squash, fruits, and meat. They also used various spices and herbs to add flavor to their dishes.
