>had no ore, no blacksmith, and therefore waged war by picking up obsidian and making saw out of themIm sorry, is this supposed to be a good thing? Because you’re presenting it like it’s a good thing.

>>10206646Incans had a curious writing system of woven threads, the aztec and maya at least had fucking writing

>>10207298I mean the Spanish got lucky as hell with various Meso-American city states allying with them against the Aztecs.
>>10206144>had the best music instruments of all timebest how?
>>10207345Considering how the Aztecs behaved it's not luck that the Spanish were able to gain the help of every neighbouring tribe, it was only a matter of time.
>>10207345why didn't anyone do that before the Spanish did it, then?

>>10207817Anyone is cooler than the ancient Gay-reeks. Seethe harder fag.
>>10207832Don't feed it attention, you'll only encourage it to shitpost more.
>>10206144>had city states, like Greeks but without the gay sexYes, though city-states go back in Mesoamerica much, much earlier then the Aztec: the Zapotec city of Monte Alban is often cited to be the first formal political state in Mesoamerica as of 500BC, 2000 years prior to the Aztec being a major thing, and by some definitions/arguements, the earlier Omec La Venta (900BC) or San Lorenzo (1400BC) sites would qualify, with writing also goiing back to 900BC and San Lorenzo haivng rulers, class systems, large scale archecture, etc.>ate bell pepper for breakfast and probably shat fireIIRC the most common breakfast thing was Atole. >made artificial island to grow more maizeChinampas were used for more then just maize: Crop growing of all kind in general, making more land for construction of buildings, etc. It also may predate the Aztec though i'm not sure of that.>found out how to use limewater to improve their corn,hich requires very advanced chemistry knowledgeNixtamalization ABSOLUTELY predates the Aztec, at least to around San Lorenzo's heyday if not earlier. And you don't need particularly complex chemistry to figure out something like that by chance, it's not like the Aztec had a working knowledge of molecules or states of matter or anything... ...they DID, however, have a highly developed set of medical and especially botanical science, with botanical gardens where plants were bred and tested for medical and other properties, sorted into formal taxonomic systems, and had a variety of model medical procudres europe wouldn't adopt for centuies.>invented the Purge to regulate their populationThe sacrifice overpopulation theory is bunk. I don't have the exact numbers off the top of my head, since I haven't dug up the sources for it in a while, but IIRC the Valley of Mexico wasn't even close to at it's carrying capacity yet, I believe only halfway there.1/?
>>10208260>IIRC the most common breakfast thing was Atole.Yeah, I read about it. Maize grounded into water (or milk) to make some caloric drink. Apparently very tasty, sometimes salty, sometimes sweet. Sounds delish!>And you don't need particularly complex chemistry to figure out something like that by chanceI don't know, I tried to read about limewater, it isn't exactly simple. It's not "pick these plants and let them dip", it's a bit more complicated than that, and I find it really, genuinely impressive that they figured that out. The fact that it predates the Aztecs only impresses me more.>The sacrifice overpopulation theory is bunkYeah, but that part was added for drama. They still had a religion based on feeding gods, through some versions I read say that sacrificed victims don't only feed the gods, but their souls also serve them.
>>10208260cont:>had death whistles, that I use on my neighbours to keep them up at night whenever they fuck too loudlyDeath whistles are a tourist thing AFAIK. There are some whistles found, but they don't make screaming noises (more like wind blowing) nor were they used in battle for intimidation as reported, though other sound making devices and techniques were used for iniitadtion in battle.I have seen ONE potentially promising source about whistels making screaming sounds, but I haven't checked it yet an evberywh else I've looked inciates it's BS>had no ore, no blacksmithThe Mesoamericans smelted gold, silver, copper, and tin and arsensical bronzes.>Tsalamatecs???>>10206153Why?>>10206595>>10206947see above>>10206774They did,though "basic" is underselling it, they had some pretty developed techniques, they just didn';t use it for weapons or tools much>>10207478>>10207345>>10207298>>10207482>Considering how the Aztecs behaved it's not luck that the Spanish were able to gain the help of every neighbouring tribe, it was only a matter of time.Aztec rule, like most large Mesoamerican city-states, was actually fair hands off, and subjects generally kept their rulers, laws, and customs as long as they paid up in taxes of economic goods and other basic obligations. (sacrifices weren't demanded as tribute). The Spanish got allies not because Aztec rule was oppressive, but the opposite: the hands off political system meant that subjects retained effective indepedence and political interests, and if one stayed indpedent as a subject, one had nothing to lose by pleding yourself to another state to help them take down the current top dog, at which point you'd be in a position of higher standing in the new kingdom you helped prop up2/?
>>10208296>Death whistles are a tourist thing AFAIK...oh. Well that's disheartening.>The Mesoamericans smelted gold, silver, copper, and tin and arsensical bronzesBut no iron or bronze.
>>10208296>>10207478>>10207345>>10207298>>10207482cont:Opporutnistc rebellions and secessions like that were very common, and that's what was largely going on that allowed the Spanish to get allies: Note how all the states that particpated in the siege of Tenochtitlan, bar Tlaxcala (which wasn't even an aztec subject, but an indepedent state the aztec empire had been blockading and invading for years) only joined Cortes AFTER Moctezuma II's death and the outbreak of smallpox in Tenochtitlan among other things, AFTER it was vulenerable. You also see tons of other, non aztec states allying with conquistadors to take ouit their political rivals in subsquent campaigns over the next few decades, too. See:- This about Mesoamerican political systems and how/why it allowed the Conquistadores to gain allies: pastebin.com/VqW97h93 (this link is busted RN but you can get it via the waybackmachine)- These delving into why the Conquest of Mexico as a whole was a lot more luck based and contigent on early flukes enabling subsequent exponential snowballing desuarchive.org/his/thread/5526254/#5526329 and archived.moe/v/thread/441551507/#441565260- Like the above more but moreso focus on Cortes speffically: pastebin.com/9vrEi1aE- like the above, but moreso focused on the disease element: desuarchive.org/his/thread/8187886/#8189822- Like the above, but more specifically on what the Aztec would need to do to "win"/only get indirectly imperialized: desuarchive.org/his/thread/9543560/#9549778 (this is probably the most relevant onesee also my base resource directory for Mesoamerican stuff pastebin.com/p42q14Ff, and pic related, which is th conquest section of my WIP mesoamerican reading chart I and some other people are working on3/?
>>10208317>>10207478>>10207345>>10207298>>10207482>why didn't anyone do that before the Spanish did it, then?as I note above, that 's a little incorrect,: subjects DID often try to rebel against the aztec or secede when the Aztec empire's influence waned, and really only tlaxcala joined the conquistadors out of hate for the Aztec (others incidentally may have had greivences, especially Huetozinco/zingo and Texcoco, but even they only joined after Tenochtitlan was crippled), but:1. While the conquistadors were vastly outnumbered by the armies of medium to large Mesoamerican cities, and couldn't hope to overcome them alone, they still had superior military tech and the Tlaxcaltec recgonized them as potential useful allies to change the tides2. Tlaxcala was on it's last legs and would have fallen to Aztec invasions within a year or so anyways, they had nothing to lose to try allying with them and assaulting tenochtitlan3. Perhaps most imporantly, The appearance of a strange, foreign force that claimed to represent and unknown king and empire gained the interest and curisotiy of Mesoamerican kings, icmluding Moctezuma II, and Cortes and co being around therefore gave the tlaxcaltec an opportunity to get close to Tenochtitlan they would not have otherwise had, via accompanying him (Moctezuma straight up allowed Cortes and his men and such inside the city)4. Once smallpox broke out and Moctezuma II died, things that woud have otherwise not happened had the conquistadors sahowed up, the geopolitical status quo shifted and Tenochtitlan was viewed as a prime target to take down to further their own ambitions by other ruling cities in the Aztec empire like Texcoco or key subjects like Xochimilco, Chalco, etc.4/?
>>10208342cont:>>10207817Getting into a pissing contests is dumb, but I could just as easily shit on the greeks for not having formal taxonomy or as developed medicine or sanitation as you can shit on the Aztec for using stone and not having wheels.You're also, you know, overlooking their cities , water mangement and hydrlauic systems, political and legal systems,. their poetry and philsophy (see pic) etc>>10208310>...oh. Well that's disheartening.As I said, there is one potentially source I wanna look into more, but i'm about to sleep and don't hgave time to explain that, if you really care you can email me at saintseiyasource@gmail.com, but I can't garuntee I'll reply anytjime soon>But no iron or bronze.I mean, I said bronze, but no iron, yes5/5 for now
>>10208296But what bout the small clay skull whistles found with the headless bodies aztec anon? :(
>>10208358I'm tempted to, but frankly, hearing that about the death whistles is really disheartening.I'm still curious about Aztec culture, I'm just bummed that death whistles are a tourist trap. I ordered one, you know, and it bothers me that I'll get a "fake" one. And also that every discussion about them seem to immediately turn into how they fell. I wanna know how they lived, what they ate, what music they listened to. I don't want to hear how they were wiped from history.>I mean, I said bronze, but no iron, yesYeah, I missed the part about arsenicated bronze. But apparently bronze is fairly easy to smelt, and doesn't require a high temperature, unlike iron.

Did the mexica worship Tonatiuh like other nahuas or was he replaced by Huitzilopochtli?In fact, how did patron deities in mesoamerica work? How different was worship of Quetzalcoatl in Cholula different from other cities? Did the mexica never feel bad for burning their enemies' temples?

>>10216246Not mesoamericans that is, andeans did sometimes, but it was still not really the norm as far as i know

>>10217427You can see Aztecs in the movie Apocalypto.
>>10217468I didn't pay attention to it at the time. Did based mel get into much trouble for vividly protraying what mexicans still to this day glorify?
>>10217468it's cool but not a full jaguar warrior outfit like we usually see, movie did a great job of portraying them though
>>10217468Apocalypto is about maya, not aztecs, and the warrior's outfits are painfully inaccurate, like most of the movie.
>>10217468>Apocalypto>AztecsMayans
>>10217626>>10217634They were Aztecs. You can see the Spaniards arriving at the end of the movie. I don't remember anyone saying that the Mayans did the sacrifice of taking the heart out and all of that.
>>10217713Synopsis of the film:>The Mayan kingdom is at the height of its opulence and power but the foundations of the empire are beginning to crumble. The leaders believe they must build more temples and sacrifice more people or their crops and citizens will die. Jaguar Paw (Rudy Youngblood), a peaceful hunter in a remote tribe, is captured along with his entire village in a raid. He is scheduled for a ritual sacrifice until he makes a daring escape and tries to make it back to his pregnant wife and son.
>>10217604How accurate is this?
>>10217427Apocalyptico, I guess.>>10217443Well, Aztecs don't have curses.A shame, that thing gave me nightmares as a kid, a movie centered on explorer telling spooky tales of Aztecs would be baller.
>>10217713They spoke the yucatec maya language, their city had maya architecture and maya glyphs all over the place, they prayed to a maya god and during the sacrifice ceremony you could see the four chacoob, a maya practice. They were maya.
>>10217722It isn't. A maya warrior would wear padded armor, wield a shield, and use a whole lot more body paint and jewelry than that.
>>10217713>>10217731And the aztecs didn't live in a jungle and there obviously was no lake around the city, so they couldn't have been aztecs. And if the movie was about the aztecs, the warriors' outfits would have been even less accurate
>>10217722It's as accurate as a WWII American soldier going to a fight dressed like Pennywise.The Tim Curry one.
>>10217721But did the Mayans do the same sacrifices of the Aztecs?
>>10217945The maya did adopt sacrifice by heart extraction from central mexicans at some point before the spanish arrived, so yes.
>>10217989But I thought the Mayans were gone much before the Spaniards arrived.
>>10218066No, that is a common misconception.What really happened was the following: Around the 9th century AD, maya civilization goes through a collapse, not THE collapse, A collapse. It was not the end of Maya civilization, they did not disappear nor revert back to primitive tribes, they quite simply abandoned the cities in the Central Yucatan and moved to the Northern Yucatan and the Guatemalan Highlands, swelling the size of the previously relatively irrelevant cities that already existed there before the collapse and creating new ones.When the spanish arrived, maya civilization was still fully functional, they still lived in cities and built pyramids, it's just that they now used a different set of cities and those cities usually had less people in them.The very first mesoamerican city sighted and visited by spaniards was maya, the infamous Malinche was gifted to Cortez by the maya king of the city of Potonchan, all surviving maya manuscripts are from after the collapse, and so is the most famous maya city, Chichen Itza.If you want to see what maya cities looked like at the time of the conquest then look at stuff like Mayapan, Zaculeu, Iximché and Tulum (pic related).tl;dr: Yes the maya were still around when the spanish arrived, it's just that they were using a different set of cities from before and the cities had less people in them.
>>10218215Did the Maya had relations with the Aztecs?
>>10217744>>10217773i'll give the movie this though, it's a very entertaining one even though there's tons of inaccuracies but things like set design, character design and the language do immerse you in the world
>>10218270Yeah, they traded with one another often, as i said, the spanish got La Malinche from a maya king who had received her from Nahua traders.And the aztecs conquered the region of Soconusco, which had a significant maya population, the aztecs were also likely planning to expand eastwards some more before the spanish invaded, which would inevitably cause them to clash with the maya more often.
>>10218310So the Aztecs were the Chads and the Maya the virgins?
>>10218487neck yourself
>>10218487Nah the totonacs were the virgins, they were weak and cowardly. The maya on the other hand were the longest lasting mesoamerican civilization whose last city was only conquered in 1697
>>10218554Aztecs vs Maya who won more battles?

>>10224735Not really the case, the aztecs and other nahuas got most of their culture from the union between their chichimec ancestors and the native central mexican city-states, which in turn took most of their culture from Teotihuacan, they also had some influence from the zapotecs, mixtecs and huastecs.As a matter of fact there are more central mexican influences in maya culture than the other way around.

Nigga that's baby shit, you didn't even mention the coolest parts of Aztec society:>cities were so well planned and so well kept that the Spanish thought they were literally entering paradise on earth when they reached Tenochtitlan, especially compared to the rat-infested shitholes of European cities at the same time>had a philosophical system that rivaled the Hindus and Chinese allowing them to organise mass societies with inferior technology, and was only suppressed because of Catholic autism and the Spaniard's desire for total religious dominance
>>10228203>This is made upYou own study proves it, jesus christ.

Sorry for not replying in the past few days anons, frankly I'm still pretty busy now tho and am heading to bed, but I'll try to reply to the rest tommorow too>>10208374So, I already directed you to check out my resources in >>10208414, but you might want to also look into Micheal Smith's research. He's an expert on Mesoamerican urbanism, but has increasingly focused on excavated and documenting everyday commoner residences in both larger cities and smaller towns and villages, and has an entire book (with another coming out) on that topic.Also, looking into some good Mesoamerican media might help. There is, frankly, not a ton, especially for everyday stuff, but there is some. My writup/list (which isn't in that pastebin yet) of Mesoamerican media I reccomend is here: desuarchive.org/co/thread/119651972/#119695404 . Of what I suggest there, the Aztec Empire comic, while showing the conquest, does show a lot of "downtime" in Aztec, Maya, Totonac, etc cities and towns too. I haven't read Zotz's comic, Codex Black, or the others, but they should have some of what you wnat too, I imagine. Kamazotz/Zotz's and OHS688 and Rafaelmena's art in general shows a lot of everyday stuff, and obviously I have similar stuff in my art drive.Also Onyx Equinox, what that thread is about, has some scenes of downtime in some cities, though not a ton. Highly reccomend it though, it's very well researched, and can be watched for free without an account on CR's site.Also, considering reaching some primary sources? For example, Duran's History of the Indies of New Spain (see pic) is a few hundred pages of history from Aztec sources and can be bought for like 20$. It was compiled post conquest so there's some distortion/bias issues, especially for the hapters describing the conquest, but still. There;s plenty of other books/sources likethis, especially if you read spanish>>10208926Check out the book drive when you're home and download some and load them on your phone, maybe?6/?

>>10222996My theory: their lack of extremely divergent Basal ancestry meant lower selfishness and lower inequality. Which resulted in less expansionism because everyone was satisfied. >>10234077If you keep tabs on eurasian history you'll find out that literally every expansionary people/lineage was associated with Basal ancestry. Today all Eurasian nations with the exception of East Asia are Basalized. And you'll see within Europe a pretty clear association of increasing inequality with higher Basal ancestry--with the least Basal Russians being the home of communism (and also contributing the least to modern invention)

Even if the diseases or other things wouldn't have helped the Spaniards I think that they would have sent more and bigger armies and finally they would have defeated the Aztecs. There were too much difference in military technology and strategy.
>>10239639Amerindian Imperial Incan Army literally BTFO'd spaniards till diseases and reinforcements came later.
>>10236438Aztecs taught their philosophy in their schools. It was basically dialetical monism with a cylical view of space and time. They also taught ethics and aesthetics
>>10239664>and reinforcements came later.That is my point. Yeah the Inca or Aztecs were more numerous but eventually Spain or other European country would have sent bigger and more prepared armies and they would have won.
>>10240001There would be no point to send armies to the new world, if there were no stable settlements there. The only lands that would have been actually safe if diseases didn't ravage the population (95%death rate) would be southern cone of south america or the northeastern coast of north america. Sooner or later tribal warfare would have been a great burden same as it happened in africa, so europeans would focus more on a similar treatment to the new world.

>>10240165Look at what happened in North America for example. There the natives even learned to ride horses and use firearms. They even allied with the French. But eventually they were all defeated an conquered.
>>10239639>>10240001>>10241165Actually the spanish government didnt sent armies to conquer the aztec or incas. They were basically rogue armies privately sponsored.
>>10241165The natives of north america were already decimated by disease. If they weren't killed by disease their numbers would have been at least 10* of the encountered numbers and their settlements would have been similar to south guatemalan/north ecuadorian settlements in terms of demographic density, and most sedentary.Keep in mind that the epidemics weren't a single event of a few years. There was a constant mortality rate for a long period that somehow managed to let like 5% of natives alive after a century.
>>10241414They were allowed by the king of Spain. They went there in the name of the king of Spain.

The Aztecs had no idea who built Teotihuacan when the Spanish asked them about the ruins.Traditionally ancient Mexico had a ruling power(s) in the Valley of Mexico region who had large cities. Northern Mexico was filled with the barbarian Chichimeca.The barbarian Chichimeca of the north used bows and arrows, lived in caves and lean-toos and hunted lots of small gameThe civilized Mexicans lived in the Valley of Mexico in cities/towns and used atlatls.

There are no preserved notes of any in kind in Nahuatl or Spanish so technically any "Prehispanic music" today is a LARP post-colonial invention. Despite the obvious influence Iberian style musicians may have taken from the indigenous people I doubt there is any real derivative of Prehispanic sound in today's LatAm traditional music. Even the natives are entirely Christianized in their ancestral cultural practices like danza.

Charles Mann does say the corpus of Nahuatl literature is on par or perhaps greater then Greek literature in 1491, but that's mostly just in the sense of the amount of surviving writing in the language, not of it's complexity or significance. He does also compare them in terms of intellectual worth, but he doesn't claim that they're even or that Aztec is greater, just that they both had intellectual traditions (which is true, though "written" is where we'll have a hangup) and the Aztec were perhaps on their way to a similar intellectual revolution as what was in Classical Greece.There's also >>10210671 but that anon is being dumb and you should disregard them for the most part. Anyways:>he mesoamericans had mathematical works comparable to euclids elements I'm not sure they did. Most Mesoamerican books deal with astrology and calender's,or political histories. There's not really evidence for there being ANY mathematical treaties in a written record. We do have a few documents dealing with non-astronomical math, though, such as tributary/tax records and land ownership documents. There's an Aztec land survey (see pic, it was technically made post-conquest but within the first few decades and reflects prehispanic methods/conventions) which shows they could calculate area, but suggests they didn't have trigonometry, due to the errors it has, for instance.7/?

Other mesoamerican scripts are varying levels of more or less language to pictographic based: Epi-Olmec and Zapotec might also be close to a complete written language, perhaps like some Chinese character systems or hieroglyphs, but niether is fully deciphered AFAIk, nor do we have a ton of extensive written records for them. Teotihuacano we only barely have inscriptions from, and there's debate if it's in line with those or the more pictographic scripts. Olmec we have a single lithograph of and it's not deciphered at all.8/?

>>10242585>Spaniards themselves wrote that Tenochtitlan was the largets marvel they had ever seen.And you believed it wholesale like a severe retard.
>334>no arguments
>>10211711>You forgot the hundreds of thousands of native allies and the disease>hundreds of thousands of native alliesnot a single source places them in the hundreds of thousands, not to mention the blatant logistical incapability of a Spanish vanguard and lets be generous a 101,000 man army being incapable of supplying itself in hostile territory.>diseaseSpanish bio superiority :)Wild and Savage came the yellow bearded men, cutting down their swarthy dwarflike foes, toppling city after city and empire after empire.>>10212041>get banned for saying 'negro' you dont even have to say nigger to get banned, you just need leftoid drones to mass report you saying anything other than "POC of African persuasion" and you'll get a three day ban from the actual shitskin janny who works the board.He hits you with multiple 15 minute min-bans and then barrages the mod with emails until he begrudgingly hands out a three day.I would call him a shitlib infiltrator but it is probably some seething pajeet or unironic mutt.
>>10217451>They are retarded about history as they are with everything else, and they dumb down the board's overall IQ levelbrown claws scribbled this post
>>10222206>>10222104It is because the Aztecs were destroyed in totality.The Swedish Memepire fell but Sweden is still around.The British Empire was literally given away to its constituents without a fight (except for America) but England is still around.The Roman Empire fell in two epic struggles but their legacy is still felt, Turks larp as Byzantines and Italians are still around as a group with a distinct and direct heritage from the Roman Empire.No one seriously wants to larp as spaztecs.People do want the legitimacy of the Roman empire.
Did the Aztecs have any black magic?
>>10246262>>10246271Its funny to me you are forced to use /pol/ language despite hating and decrying them.They are so effective at making you seethe you have adopted their lexicon, and now apply it, rather poorly.
>>10239493>>10239218its also retarded to use "Europe" as a metric.Lets look at the development of Northern Europe specifically, they skyrocketed past their neighbors faster than anyone else in the world.From a Stone Age tech Neolithic people to the most advanced Iron Age culture in regards to boats and weapons in the entire world.Natives have nothing like that.
>>10246477>northen Europe>technologically skyrocketed[laughs in Scottish]
>>10246512>cites the country with the most scientific achievements per capita
>>10246460/pol/fags despise blacks yet they use their lexicon and call whatever strikes their fancy "based". I'm sure your post sounded smarter in your head you fucking queer.
>>10246447>no one wants to LARP as spaztecs>they want to LARP as pedophile sodomizers who were raped by Germans insteadThis is your brain on /int/.
>>10246434Whites are subhuman.
>>10246366>NOOOOO YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE EUROPEAN ACCOUNTS THAT TESTIFY TO OUR SUPERIORITY>NOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T BELIEVE EUROPEAN ACCOUNTS THAT ARE TESTAMENTS TO YOUR SUPERIORITYIs this what browsing an anime imageboard does to you? Turn you into a stormfag with no capacity for critical thinking?
>>10246592Hey, don't drag animes into this, he doesn't need them to be retarded.
>>10246563based isn't a nig word you moron
>>10246592>>10246636Oh the irony of these severely retarded uneducated faggot making this ironic when retards like>>10207831exist
>>10246707doesn't it come from based god
>>10242539I don't think that those flags on the back would be comfortable to fight.Interesting how the japanese had similar flags on their back. I assume they were to identify the soldiers in the battle.
In case you're curious, there was a thread on /pol/ that linked here, if you wonder why the thread went from being near dead to being busy. >>10247155Don't make this a weaaboo thread as well, please.
>>10247155According to an anonymous conquistador, those were strapped to the back in such a way that it neither hindered the warrior in combat and is were so securely bound to them that it cannot be captured unless you cut it's wearer to pieces.It was used by the generals and his officers, and was pretty important for their organization.>>10247251That explains it.
Another good and based thread ruined by polfags and trannies
>>10247410It's impossible to talk about culture without retards barging in.
>>10247410>>10247425no, no it wasn'tthreads on this board used to last a month
>>10242359I doubt that. European powers conquered other african kingdoms/asian when they already had colonized the new world.
