“The map shows both indigenous and Spanish influences.”

Then it’s not really Aztec. It’s Mexican.

Wow!

That looks just like Uncle Ed.

I’m the King of Mexico!

Rare Aztec Map Reveals a Glimpse of Life in 1500s Mexico

"Walter was a human sacrifice." ~ Art Weingartner

I thought all Mexican maps were just a series of arrows pointing north towards the Rio Grande.

"The names of several indigenous leaders include the Spanish honorific “don,” and the names of some, such as “don Alonso” and “don Matheo,” indicate that they’d been baptized with Spanish names."

Is Ron Mexico also on the map? I mean since we are talking about ancient history and all...?

That was just after the time of St Juan Diego on who cape the Lady of Guadalupe cast her miraculous image...

...I wonder?

I don't see how that map would give any clues whatsoever regarding what life was like in the 1500s. They had at least one chair, acorns with flags on top, four peas, 8 1/2 raindrops, and an Omega symbol wrapped with a snake.

Anyone who thinks that they could learn much about life in the 1500s from that drawing is smoking some heavy duty stuff.
