That is super cool!!! Its a shame their writing system never developed fully. When I was in college, I was studying ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs independently. Egypt is to me, what the aztecs are to you. I got pretty good at it (relatively) and translated some texts from Nefertari's tomb.

I am still absolutely in love with ancient Egypt. I am also a huge fan of the ancient Canaanites

it was developed, there's just no surviving mexica(aztec) scripts. most of the information we get from the aztec empire are the codices, archeological finds, oral communication, and tradition.

there's a little bit of mythology and spanish propaganda on said codices and other documents though, so it's more of a hassle to separate them.

Ahhh, now my pre-columbian america class is starting to come back to me. Have you ever looked in to the other city states around the valley of Mexico? I recall writing an essay on Huexotla

Xochicalco is one example besides Teotihuacan. made by the Olmeca-Xicalanca before the destruction. i believe it was first destroyed in the epiclassic period, but i don't remember. i know it got repopulated with the Tlahuica and was later incorporated into the Aztec empire.

fun fact: did you know that the nahuatl language reached as far as the great plains?

me, i personally believe that nahuatl was the lingua franca between uto-aztecan tribes. i think it was mainly used for trading, but i'll need to look up more sources to see if i can confirm this

Wichita State professor uncovers forgotten native nation that could ‘revolutionize’ history of the Great Plains

March 30, 2023 — The Great Plains has often been overlooked in the history books of North America, but recent discoveries made by a team of Wichita State University archaeologists are rewriting the history of where the beating heart of North American actually was in the pre-historic era before...

I have not heard of Xochicalco, but it sounds fascinating. It is such a shame these sites are so overlooked, there is so much history and culture being missed! The civilization of the Mexican valley really remind me of the Canaanites: They were both fascinating and distinguished cultures in their own right, but are tainted by biased sources. Not to mention the focus on human sacrifice!

You come off as someone who have studied this in a university. Is this the case?

people forget that human sacrifice was done all over the world and the people that were sacrificed weren't just some poor innocent soul. in the case of various mesoamerican cultures, prisoners of war, volunteers, and criminals were sacrificed. the numbers were probably skewed to portray mesoamerican culture and by extension, native american cultures to be evil.

no, i was self-taught. i know some mesoamerican enthusiasts that know more about the subject than even i do. i am currently studying for something vastly different from mesoamerican studies.

i did take some advanced courses in various subjects, but none have to do with mesoamerican studies or anything similar to it. i know a lot about a little and a little about a lot.

It really links back to justifications for enslavement and extermination. Our enemies are barbaric, human-sacrificing savages, and therefore everything we do to them is justified. Nobody acknowledges the fact that the encomienda system of the Spanish was just as, if not more, barbaric than what the Mexica did.

Same thing goes with the Canaanites. Assuming they did practice human sacrifice (i believe they did, even though there is no physical evidence), the Hebrews were not the "good guys" the Hebrew Bible claims they were. They, according to the Hebrew Bible, embarked on a campaign of extermination and enslavement across the promised land. They even, at times, practiced human sacrifice themselves!
