The Mayan number system is vigesimal (based on twenties)
The Roman number system is decimal (based on tens)
Nothing really it just diffrent shapes.
There are many reasons why the Mayan and the Hindu Arabic number systems are different some of these are why.The Mayan number System has a place value and a non place value system and the Hindu Arabic number system has a place value system.Their based numbers are different, the Mayans is 20 and the Hindu Arabic is 10.The Mayan number system only has three symbols, and the Hindu Arabic number system has up to ten symbols including the zero.Hindu Arabic number system reads or makes it from left to right on the Mayan number system you make or read it from top to bottom.The Mayans also didn't have the concept of fractionThe similarities are that both number systems have a symbol for zero and that both number systems could do addition and subtraction even if it was difficult in the Mayan system

the Mayan and Chinese are the oldest.
Both the Mayan and Roman number systems are non-positional, meaning the value of a symbol does not depend on its position within the number. Both systems use additive and subtractive principles to represent numbers. Both systems lack a symbol for zero, which can make calculations more challenging compared to the modern decimal system.

the Mayan number system is called the Hieroglyphics, they thought that zero counted as a number, so they put that zero into the counting system... i hope this answer helps
