Aztec Temple of Blood 2/5

Unsolved History - Aztec Temple of Blood
Part 2

An Aztec sacrifice of 20,000 people over a period of four days in 1411 is examined. The sacrifice consisted of a sacrificial priest cutting the person's skin beneath the rib cage, reaching up and cutting the arteries and veins attached to their heart and pulling it out. Then the body was pushed down the stairs of the altar. After an examination, it is proven that this many people could be sacrificed in such a small amount of time.

60,000 skulls... I don't know why many people, even so called "scholars" just keep repeating that number whithout analytical and critical view, taking in count that that number was given by Bernal Díaz with just a brief glance...

mexicans today are meztizo...half spanish and half native "mostly azteca". also alot of mexicanos today hate cortes and the spanish...a big question in mexico is "are we the children of cortes and milanche? or are we the children of cuauhtemoc"?...cuauhtemoc was montezumas nephew...and milanche was the native mayan mistress who was cortes' translator who bore his child.

You mean all the land America took to bury their dead after saving the asses of the Germans, French, Japanese, Koreans, etc... compared to all the cultures in the history of man America, in a short 235 years, has done more to promote freedom and lift people from poverty than any other. Yes, America has its dark days but pales when compared to the abuse and blood in the history of all other societies . Jumping on the Hate America bandwagon is what the uninformed and dishonest do.
