Is this the goal of Aztlan fanatics - human sacrifices?

The fact that one culture wiped out another does not make the victor better, more valuable, or more worth studying than the vanquished.

Mexican archeologists have made the most significant Aztec find in decades, unearthing a 15th century altar and a huge stone slab at a ruined temple in the throbbing heart of Mexico City."Throbbing Heart", "Aztec Altar"? I get it! I get it!

Rome just got away from the basics. She abandoned the running game, as it were.
The Aztecs were defeated by a combination of alien technology & shrewd alliances. Cortez was able to 'divide & conquer'.

This is all just too demoralizing.

Sure it does. I could have a warped view, probably do, but the victor is superior by definition.
