    “So far archeologist have found 139 offerings and more than 9,000 objects, including children’s skeletons, bones of marine fish, turtle shells…masks, musical instruments… and cotton textiles.”22 Archeologist even discovered what appeared to be a “…god of death statue… bathed with large quantities of blood from sacrificed people…”23 A reminder of gory rituals practiced by the Aztecs. What is interesting about some of the more obscure and less exciting items is not the items themselves but where they came from. Objects that were unearthed were found to have come from places such as the Gulf Coast, Guerrero24, and “…the modern states of New Mexico and Arizona.”25 This shows the extensive lengths that the Aztecs travelled for trade. Their power, influence and strength reached far beyond the boundaries of their capital in Tenochtitlan. Many of the more significant offerings and objects found at the temple are reminders of the importance of the two deities of the Templo Mayor to the Aztec people. Every layer of fill contained offerings to the gods, most of which were related to Huitzilopochtli and Tlaloc.26 Leonardo Lopez Lujan and Judy Levin believe that the arrangement of the offerings in the fill “… can tell us how the Aztec people understood the world and what they were trying to say to the gods through their…

This document describes how although all narratives about the people and cultures begin with the arrival of Europeans too much credit is being given to their “discoveries” because before the Europeans the Native Americans (Aztecs) were doing the things the Europeans claimed to be doing first.

    The Olmec civilization, which flourished in eastern Mexico from about 1300 to 400 B.C., was probably the forerunner of several other Central American civilizations, Such as, the Toltec, Aztec, and Maya. The Olmec practiced advanced agricultural methods, but they were also accomplished engineers. For example one of their gifts to posterity is a group of sculpted stone heads, each weighing more than 20 tons. Although the purpose of these monuments is not fully understood they attest to the artistic and technical skills of a people living in the Americas some 2,500 years before Columbus. Even more interesting is the fact that like the ancient Egyptians the Olmec developed a sophisticated method of writing based on their own hieroglyphics. Strangely…

    The Olmec civilization thrived from c. 1500 BC to 400 BC, in the modern day Mexican states of Veracruz and Tabasco.

The title Olmec comes from, ‘Olmec-Xicalanca, which is the name of the multi-lingual traders of the Conquest Era, from the same region, and the name has stuck through the murky beginnings of unearthing this early Mesoamerican civilization. As archaeologists continue to discover more on the Olmec’s, it is becoming much more apparent that later Mesoamerican civilizations, such as the Mayans and Aztecs, learned and…
