Black Eyed Peas, I feel like that band was forced on me for like a decade.

I’m approaching 40 rapidly, I can’t say “based” without cringing.

Yo give me my walking cane, I’m out of this game.

I can. We’re old and it’s new.

I’ve found that if I don’t say those things and just treat younger people with respect then I don’t get made fun of for being old so much.

I feel like I do this alot, except it’s the Aztec Empire instead of capitalism.

Mesoamerican fact of the day:

The wheel was actually known to Mesoamerica pre-European contact. Archeological finds included toys, food preparation tools, seal rollers, and spindle whorls for textile making.

I’m a history nerd and Mesoamerica is quality content.

Aztec fact of the day:

To punish some Altepetl (city states) for rebellion the Mexica would impose near impossible quotas on yearly tribute, such as white jaguar pelts.

You’re insulting garlic.

I’m a barbarian in most regards and even I’m confounded by your lack of refinement.

Why didn’t they just put Kukulcán in the title?

Regardless, the round style temple is fascinating. That means a similar shared tradition with Quetzalcoatl-Ehecatl worship, where the construction of the temples emphasized airflow.

What I want to know is, does this mean this practice started in the area and is a development from earlier “Feathered Serpent” worship of “Olmecs” or a tradition from outside the region such as influence from Teotihuacan.

I study Mesoamerican and especially Tenochtitlan history for fun. It breaks my heart every time I get to that part in any of my books.

A fantastic fortunate find! A snake rising from the earth after an earthquake, a coatl emerging from a tlalolin. How poetic!
