Answer:

They also engaged in long range trade of almost any other necessities such as salt, potato, stone and luxury items because there was a large need for trade in order to bring such basic goods together.

Maya merchants dealt in two kinds of goods, subsistence items and luxury items.Subsistence items were things used every day such as salt, especially necessary in a hot climate, foodstuffs, clothing and tools.
