It was wrote by people who actually lived here, it was the telling of a people trying to protect their homes and way of life, and it covers the history of our neighboring ancestry. First, the Florentine Codex was wrote by people native to this continent. Its people could very well be the ancestor of plenty Americans today. It was not wrote by people who had so sail here from another land. It is from our own people.
