How to design puzzles for an ancient period in Earth history?

I'm writing a Earth history time travel story, and the main character needs to solve puzzles from each time period he visits. I'm going very far back in history and I'm concerned about being able to design puzzles for the Mesopotamian and Mayan eras. Where can I take inspiration where history is lacking? I'm trying to be historically accurate as possible. (it's for a game, I need to actually create these puzzles too)
