Mesoamerican ball game
The Olmecs, who lived from 1,200 B.C.E. to 400 B.C.E., played the Mesoamerican ballgame.  They may have created the game.  The ancient Mayans played the game; they called it pitz in Classical Maya.  Later, the Aztecs played it; in their language, Nahuatl, they called the game ōllamaliztli.
