The answer is True.

The arrival of the Spanish brought about a profound change in the Maya world. The diseases they brought decimated the Maya and the Spanish forced the Maya to convert to Christianity.

They burned alive anyone who could read or write the Mayan language because they said the books contained nothing but superstitions and falsehoods of the Devil.
