What caused the Pre-Columbian societies of Latin America to develop such unique and advanced cultures? Why and how?

The Latin American societies developed in such unique ways because of developing in isolation from the rest of the world and in conditions that were different than most of the civilizations in other parts of the world.

Explanation:

The Pre-Columbian civilizations of Latin America were nothing like the civilizations in the Old World. Even the simplest of things were done in a unique and different manner, and those differences were just growing as the importance of a cultural trait was growing. This was due to the big differences in the environments in which civilizations were developing in Latin America and in the Old World, but also the isolation.

n The Latin American civilizations and the societies that were their predecessors were totally isolated from the Old World for over 10,000 years or maybe even more. This has resulted in marking cultural divergence and development. Very often, these civilizations are seen as less developed than the ones from the Old World, but this not true, as the ones that were most developed were around the same level and in some aspects even more developed. Something that is often skipped when making comparisons are the animals that were available for domestication, which was in abundance in the Old World and greatly influenced its development, while the civilizations of Latin America had very few which were not that influential.
