Yes, I am confident in this answer. Mesoamerica (present-day Mexico and Central America) and Peru were both regions that had fertile soils, access to water sources, and a variety of agricultural resources such as maize and potatoes. These favorable environmental conditions allowed for the development of advanced agricultural practices and ultimately supported the growth of civilizations in these areas.
