Another weird pic that I stumbled upon while researching Aztecs.

I’m digging the new Aztec posting
If I find more I’ll post them.
Well the two Tezcatlipocas in the middle (red being an aspect of Xipe Totec) are from the Codex Borgia. The depiction of Quetzalcoatl Ehecatl is from Codex Borbonicus and Huitzilopochtli doesn’t show up in Codex Borgia at all.
This person Aztecs!
Yep, it’s the only thing left I’m passionate about. I’m a history nerd from Texas and I got a chip on my shoulder that Mexican history doesn’t attract history nerds.
A shame, because the pre-columbian cultures of that region are so fucking cool, and the colonized history isn’t boring either! Wish i knew more about it.
