Daily Life of the Aztecs: People of the Sun and Earth

David Carrasco, Scott Sessions Daily Life of the Aztecs: People of the Sun and Earth (The Daily Life Through History Series)
Hackett Pub Co | 2008 | ISBN: 0872209334 | 304 pages | PDF | 22 MB

Based on the most recent archaeological discoveries, this volume offers a balanced interpretation of the complex relationships between Aztec cultural practices, social order, and religious myths and symbols. In addition to examining such topics as the ancient Aztec calendar, commerce, art, and human sacrifice, Carrasco considers the impact and influence Aztec culture continues to have on modern Mexican society. Heavily illustrated, this book also includes a chronology of Central Mexico, a glossary, and a selected bibliography.
