@Mash
|
||
In Proper Human History, Chichén Itzá was a Mayan city located on the Yucatán Peninsula of modern-day Mexico.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
The Maya civilization lasted from around 2000 B.C. to A.D. 1697.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
The era from 2000 B.C. to A.D. 250 is known as the Preclassic period... From A.D. 250 to A.D. 900 is known as the Classic period...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
And finally, the period from A.D. 900 to the late seventeenth century as the Postclassic period.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
Each of these periods is said to have experienced their own decline and subsequent rise to prosperity.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
As for Chichén Itzá, it was built by the Itzá people, Mayan for “water sorcerers,” in the Postclassic period.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
The Itzá are thought to be either outsiders to the Maya civilization, or the descendants of Mayans who managed to escape the fall of their central hub.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
But wherever they came from, when they arrived in the peninsula with its abundance of natural wells, or “cenotes,” they named it “Chichén Itzá,” or “the mouth of the well of the water sorcerers.”
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
The Itzá people also worshipped a god of wind and water they called “Kukulcan.”
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
...This same god is known as Quetzalcoatl in Aztec mythology, which came later.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|

Many of their myths are similar thanks to their shared origin in Latin America, but yes, at their heart, they're fundamentally different religions.
|

|

Put kind of crassly, the Mayan civilization was sort of like the rough draft for the more polished Aztec civilization.

When the Mayan civilization declined, the gods disappeared as well, and all of Latin America entered its Age of Humanity.

Mayan civilization is thought to have been created by the Mayan people, but in truth, it was the creation of many different tribes and hamlets.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
Their descendants broke into several different ethnicities, like the “Tzotzil” and “K'iche'.”
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
The name “Maya” is now believed to have come many years later, from the city-state of Mayapán.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
During the Classic period, Mayan civilization was composed of around sixty to seventy city-states.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
Even after their civilization's first collapse, the Mayans went on to create numerous cultures and histories during the Postclassic period.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
They are even believed to have been physically stronger and more mentally advanced than the average person at the time.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
City-states like Copán, Tikal, Calakmul, and Palenque flourished thanks to a prolonged period of continuous competition and cooperation.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
These cultures had advanced written language and astronomical practices, and built incredible structures like the Pirámide de La Danta, a pyramid in the Mayan city of El Mirador.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
By using the observatory, El Caracol, which meticulously tracked the stars' movements, they created two calendars, and efficiently managed the lives of their people.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
Although the Mayans never had a single unifying dynasty, the kings of their various city-states did forge alliances.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace B 4]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
Still...technological progress isn't a matter of man power alone.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
It's also greatly affected by their environment[line 2]the kind of crops they can grow, the ore they can mine, and the climate they live in.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
The harsh climate of Mesoamerica helped to form a vibrant mythology. It also made the Mayan people very strong...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
...but prevented them from making much progress when it came to hand tools, like weapons.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
After the center of culture gradually shifted from the Yucatán Peninsula to the Central Mexican Plateau...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
...the same thing happened with the Aztec civilization, which flourished in the Postclassic period.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
Their arms consisted primarily of wooden weapons like spears, bows, and macana[line 2]swords made of wood, with shards of obsidian embedded in their edges.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
They never developed guns, nor did they have mounted cavalry.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
So there's a strong argument to be made that the people of Mesoamerica lagged behind European nations in matters of warfare.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
And then...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace B 7]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
...the successor to Mayan civilization, the flourishing Aztec kingdom, collapsed in the mid-sixteenth century.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
It did not collapse because of strife with bordering kingdoms. They were overrun by foreign conquerors who came from across the sea.[bgmStop BGM_EVENT_156 2.0]

They were led by a Spanish conquistador named Hernán Cortés.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
He landed on the shores of Central America with only a few trusted companions, and eventually conquered the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan.
|

[k]
|

|

@Mash
|
||
The Aztec king at the time, Moctezuma II, died in the ensuing upheaval...

@Mash
|

...and in the end, Hernán Cortés and his fellow conquistadors destroyed the Aztecs.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|

From then on, the Aztec lands became Spanish territory dubbed “Nueva España,” meaning “New Spain,” which would later become “Mexico.”

I've heard of that. Less than five hundred Spaniards destroyed an Aztec kingdom of tens of thousands of people.

I remember an Aztec legend that went something like:
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace C 3]
|
||
|
||
@Nemo Marine
|
||
“Though the good god Quetzalcoatl may have vanished after being defeated by the evil god Tezcatlipoca...”
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Nemo Marine
|
||
“...one day, he will return from the northeastern lands, and restore the Aztecs to their former glory.”
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace C 5]
|
||
|
||
@Nemo Marine
|
||
By that time, the Age of Gods had already ended, but that didn't stop people from believing.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Nemo Marine
|
||
At the time, Quetzalcoatl was believed to have white skin and a black beard.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Nemo Marine
|
||
So when Cortés appeared, matching that description...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Nemo Marine
|
||
...Moctezuma II believed him to be the second coming of Quetzalcoatl, and welcomed him as a guest.

...over fifty people were sacrificed to the rain god Tlāloc and the tribal god Huītzilōpōchtli every day.

The Aztec people regularly waged war with neighboring city-states...
|

[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
...and used their overwhelming military force to capture a great many people for use as slaves and sacrifices.
|

?1:So many sacrifices... They must not have been popular.
|

?2:I can only imagine how much those neighbors must have hated them...

Right. The Aztec Empire's success was built on countless bodies and all the resentment that created.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Mash
|
||
So Cortés wasn't solely responsible for their downfall.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|

@Mash
|
||
Bad blood had been building between the Aztecs and their neighbors for many years by then.

When it came to warfare on flat land, the Spaniards' guns and cavalry gave them an overwhelming advantage. The Aztec Empire simply did not have anything similar to use.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Rasputin
|
||
Neither guns nor horses were much help in the jungle, and the Aztecs had a tremendous advantage in terms of numbers.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Rasputin
|
||
And that is why probably Cortés's smartest decision was not to wage war with the neighboring tribes...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Rasputin
|
||
...but instead to enlist them as allies against a common enemy in the Aztec Empire.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Rasputin
|
||
He then spread rumors that he was the second coming of Quetzalcoatl, and instead of being treated as an invader...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Rasputin
|
||
...he openly paraded through Tenochtitlan's gates, took Moctezuma II prisoner, and occupied the Aztec capital.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Rasputin
|
||
In the end, the Aztec Empire was destroyed in the name of the Spaniards' greed and the neighboring tribes' fury.

Though they arguably had the most powerful empire on Earth at the time, to say nothing of the flourishing capital, Tenochtitlan...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Rasputin
|
||
...it still collapsed from within, unable even to fight a proper war.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Rasputin
|
||
If Moctezuma II hadn't believed in the legend of Quetzalcoatl's second coming, or if the Aztec Empire had been less receptive to outside cultures...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Rasputin
|

...the history of Mesoamerica might have gone very differently.

Yeah. That's why Moctezuma II was said to be the ruler who brought about the end of the Aztec Empire.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Nemo Marine
|
||
He was blamed for the error of welcoming a foreign invader as an Aztec god...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
@Nemo Marine
|
||
...and in the end, it was his own people, the people of Tenochtitlan, not the Spaniards, who killed him.
|

[k]
|
||
|

@Nemo Marine
|

The Spaniards actually let Emperor Moctezuma go free, but then the nobles and other people of Tenochtitlan stoned him to death.

There are numerous theories as to why the Spaniards let him go...

That all sounds just like what has been happening in Mictlān as of late.

We have our golden city, Chichén Itzá, and Kukulcan, the Teachings of the Sun. And Proper Human History had an altar city, also named Chichén Itzá, and a Kukulcan who was a god of wind and water.
|
||
[k]
|

@Tepeu

We also have our subterranean world named Mictlān, and you have your underworld, also named Mictlān.

As I told you back at the cornfield, we never had a concept of such a thing as a god.

|

@Tepeu

We learned about that from Daybit the Crypter.
|
||
[k]
|

|

@Tepeu
|

Our Teachings of the Sun, Kukulcan, only came to be called a god because of what we learned from him.

I feel as though this notion of gods fits much better now.

In fact, it's said that Kukulcan the sun god built this city to oversee all of Mictlān.
