The first Spanish arrived in the Yucatan peninsula (land of the Maya where the calendar was perfected) in 1511 as the result of a shipwreck. Cordoba sailed there deliberately in 1517. Cortez didn’t arrive in what is now Veracruz, central Mexico, among Aztec vassals, until 1519. This is not to denigrate his accomplishments, but he was not the first Bearded God to arrive in Mexico, by a long shot. Really the conquest of Mexico is more ambiguous that many acknowledge.
You’re not trying to ruin a perfectly good debate with facts are you????
