The architectural structures of ancient Mexico, such as the pyramid structures in Teotihuacán and Maya cities, showed influences from other civilizations and used the talud-tablero system. Mexican folk arts included masks, pottery, woodcarving and were developed by early civilizations. Mexican music has roots in instruments like bone flutes used to imitate animal sounds, and includes genres like mariachi, marimba, and various regional concert styles. Traditional Mexican dances were spiritual offerings and represented natural elements like fertility, earth, and crops through movements.
