Thank You :) I am doing a paper on the conquest of the Maya and I just needed the background info on the conquest of the Aztecs, and this was perfect! Thanks

mexicans came from the spaniards mating with the local aztecs.

funny how all this happened ONLY about 500 years ago...quite sad...i wish there were no take-overs so all cultures would be more organic..

[7th75thCallaghan]

@superduperboyx Conquest is an unavoidable part of interaction between cultures. I don't see any legitimacy in the claim that it is somehow less 'organic'.

[superduperboyx]

@7th75thCallaghan What I meant by organic was letting the civilization grow by itself and not influenced by invasions and forcefully make them change the way they do things and change beliefs they once had..

[7th75thCallaghan]

@superduperboyx It would be very interesting yes, but not necessarily preferable, the equivalent for us would be to continue pagan sun worship, which I would certainly prefer over Christianity, at least. Those guys knew how to have a good time.
