Aztec Archaeology and Ethnohistory (Cambridge World

Aztec Archaeology and Ethnohistory (Cambridge World Archaeology)

This book provides an up-to-date synthesis of Aztec culture, applying interdisciplinary approaches (archaeology, ethnohistory, and ethnography) to reconstructing the complex and enigmatic civilization. Frances F. Berdan offers a balanced assessment of complementary and sometimes contradictory sources in unravelling the ancient way of life. The book provides a cohesive view of the Aztecs and their empire, emphasizing the diversity and complexity of social, economic, political, and religious roles played by the many kinds of people we call "Aztecs." Concluding with three integrative case studies, the book examines the stresses, dynamics, and anchors of Aztec culture and society.
