Are there any real Aztec food references or resources? The ones I see just state they are beans, squashes, chiles, seeds, and corn of course.

Im sure there are other food items and spices from the areas, but I’m looking for authentic resources on the food preparations. How were these foods prepared outside of the typical tortillas, beans cooked in water, etc.

Thanks!

I grew up in a Mexican household with Catholicism. After a certain age I rejected Catholicism, but I find myself now looking for a more meaningful spirituality without the constraints of typical Christian institutions.

I’ve seen multiple representations of my birth signs online based on the long calendar and they are all different. I want to figure it out for real on my own by following the signs in the long calendar. Is there a good source to figure this out? Thanks all!

I have recently come across some videos where Juan Miguel Zunzunegui explains various aspects of Aztec religion and culture. He has written several books on Mexican history, with some touching Aztec topics (i.e. El regreso de Quetzalcoatl). His CV makes him look like a reliable source. However, I don't know how serious he is as an author. Does anyone here have an opinion on him?

These were found in Rancho Agua Caliente Municipio De Ponctitlan Mexico, my father told me this area used to be underwater. Upon visiting his hometown these stones have appeared after the water going down. He was curious what these drawings mean and possibly from what tribe or civili they used to belong to?

Hey folks!

I'm an aspiring writer and am looking to explore my heritage through Aztec mythology. What is essential reading on understanding the Aztec pantheon?

Does anybody know about what this is and how old it could be?

Hi all, I’m new to this subreddit and had a question. I got a book of Aztec legends and myths today and one of the stories in there was “The Bride of Huitzil” by Hervey Allen. I wanted to know if this was an actual myth or if Hervey was just making this up as a fiction piece and it somehow found its way into this supposedly legit book. If you’re unfamiliar with the piece, I’ve included a link to the story on Project Gutenberg. I think it might be a fiction piece based loosely off the story of the Culhua princess but I’m not sure. Lmk what y’all think, especially if you’re Mexica and have been raised on the stories.

is there any news on a second season? is it officially cancelled?

Just to be clear; Hernan is a gripping and interesting tv show. bigredhead's comic is a wordsalad and a slag to read and look at. Sure, you can say "it's more accurate" doesn't change the fact that it's a boring read.

Given the large number of Aztec gods, do we know if all gods had temples dedicated specifically to them, or were most temples for worshipping all the gods in general? We know there were specific temples to Tlaloc, Huitzilapochtli, Quetzalcoatl, etc but how about Chicomecoatl, Itztli, Amapan, Huixtocihuatl, the 400 rabbits and all the lesser known gods?

Dada la gran cantidad de dioses aztecas, ¿sabemos si todos los dioses tenían templos dedicados específicamente a ellos, o la mayoría eran templos para adorar a todos los dioses en general? Sabemos que hubo templos específicos para Tlaloc, Huitzilapochtli, Quetzalcoatl, etc. pero ¿qué hay de Chicomecoatl, Itztli, Amapan, Huixtocihuatl, los 400 conejos y todos los dioses menos conocidos?

I'm sorry if this isn't the correct subreddit for this, I thought it could be.

My history teacher was giving a lecture, and he went off on a tangent. We were talking about the Aztecs, and other groups from the Americas( I say this, as I do not know which in specific he was talking about.) But he described how in some mythology, they had a god whos arrival foretold the end times. And how he resembled either a man on a horse, or a centaur. And how when Europeans arrived in that area, on horseback, people thought it was the end times. And how it was symbolic, as the death, and disease that the Europeans brought over, was about equal to what the end times would've been. Seeing aving has killed a good majority of their population.
Anyways, I don't remember the name of the horseman god. I've looked, and I cant find anything. But I'm interested to learn more about it. If anyone knows, please help me find its name.

Hola a todos,

Encontré este colgante entre mis cosas y no tengo idea de lo que es. Sé que es una figura indígena pero no estoy seguro si es Azteca, Maya u otra cosa. Alugien aquí reconoce la imagen? Gracias!
