Aztec Art

by Esther Pasztory

Aztec--the name evokes one of history's cultural enigmas. That fabled empire in the New World, with its towering golden culture, its bloody human sacrifices, and its terror-inspiring idols, was yet a hopeless loser when Cortes and his small Spanish forces collided with Motecuhzoma's army. The Aztec's capital of Tenochtitlan was leveled and their whole world destroyed.

Read it to write fanfiction. Do not have the knowledge or skills to fact check it. Enjoyed the pictures.
