I researched the musical instruments of the #Aztecs and generated a song about them on #Suno . Obviously the song is modern but I’m pleased with the atmosphere. Hope you enjoy.

The Tlalchichi is considered a dwarf form of the common Mesoamerican dog (Chichi): same body and head, but with brachymelic limbs.
Its remains appear across Mexico and Mesoamerica, often in funerary contexts, suggesting a symbolic role.
It was already present with #Zapotecs, #Mayans and #Aztecs.
In 1519, the #Aztecs whose population was between 20-25 million, was overthrown by #Spanish forces under the conquistador Hernan Cortes
Allies are not expandable. That's something that one of today's leaders in particular can learn from history. So asserts Jay Silverstein in his piece for @uk.theconversation.com: theconversation.com/the-aztec-em.... Cuauhtémoc. Caligula. Who else does Trump remind you of?

Coatlicue, acrylic and enamel on canvas. One of the death-associated divinities in the Aztec pantheon. Appropriate today; the state of the world is hers. #theferrisfiles #mixedmedia #nostalgia #metaphorsaplenty #Aztecs
This Mesoamerican mask is made of turquoise, conch shell (for the teeth), mother of pearl (for the eyes) and gold foil (for the eyelids) all on a cedar wood base (which is painted with red hematite on the inside). It is thought that the mask represents Xiuhtecuhtli, the Aztec god of fire and turquoise. The Aztecs believed that the center of the earth – where Xiuhtecuhtli lived - was made of turquoise. These turquoise mosaic masks were probably worn during creation ceremonies and for dramatic reenactments of heroic stories; they may have been worn by a person or attached to an effigy. Their beauty enthralled the conquistador Hernán Cortés, who brought back several as gifts for the Spanish King Charles V.

The first European-style school of #HigherEducation in the Americas was founded #ThisDayInHistory in 1536. #ColegioDeSantaCruz was run by #Franciscans, intended to train #Aztecs as priests & bishops, but they lacked money for it, and in 1555 Spain forbade #indigenous ordinations.

Sello de un mono con cola, brazos extendidos y boca abierta.
En mesoamérica, como si fuera calcomanías, cualquiera podía decorarse con sellos con pigmentos negros, rojos, amarillos o blancos, especialmente en algunas ceremonias. También podrían haberse usado sobre tela, cerámica o corteza. 🏛️Museo Amparo #mexicas #azteca #aztecs
