To create intercultural exchange in international relations, it is necessary to understand the culture and religion of the target society. One of the important issues in understanding the culture and religion of a region is the historical beliefs of the people of that region. Considering the ancient history of the indigenous people of Latin America and the civilizations existing in that land, understanding the current culture and customs of the people of Latin America will be incomplete without understanding their civilizational roots. Among the civilizations of the American continent, the three civilizations of the Maya, Inca, and Aztec are larger and better known than the rest. To understand civilization, one must look at its religious beliefs and customs. Despite the many similarities and differences between these three civilizations, in order to find a common and common culture between all three civilizations, in other words, in Latin America as a whole, examining the religious-cultural commonalities of these civilizations takes on a special place. In all three civilizations, with the belief in the special role of nature in the existential structure of man and also the management of each natural phenomenon by its own god, polytheism seems natural. To stay safe from natural disasters and receive blessings, they had to please the god associated with each phenomenon and hold a special festival for each god. Considering the numerous festivals and ceremonies recorded in the aforementioned civilizations, it seems that the culture of these civilizations was a collective culture and gathering played a fundamental role in civilization and its administration.
