2 OVERVIEW
A brief summary of the This course examines the critical boundaries between course contents the historical records, the painted books (codices) and the material culture of archaeology. It focuses on the Spanish Chroniclers of Sixteenth Century Mexico who saw and recorded the dazzling brilliance of Aztec life
and culture. The evidence from these two distinctive
literary sources will be set against the insight gained by archaeological investigations over the last thirty years – in particular the excavations of the Great Temple of the Aztecs that has done so much to revolutionize our knowledge of that civilization. Moving back and forth between the indigenous painted books and the chronicles of Sixteenth century Mexico and archaeology, the student will be able to synthesize the information in order to understand Aztec culture, where religion, politics and economic concerns overlap in complex ways.
The course begins with an overview of the Aztecs from their humble beginnings to Empire builders looking at the Aztec Annals and the archaeological evidence. We then turn to the Spanish Conquest examining the documentary evidence especially the writings of the Conquistadors Hernán Cortés and Bernal Díaz del Castillo as well as the writings of the Catholic friars Bernardino de Sahagún and Diego Durán.

The New Fire Ceremony. The Hill of the Star: Citlaltepec WEEK 8: Nov 26
Codex Borbonicus, New Fire Ceremony
This session aims to understand the importance of ritual life in Aztec Mexico. At the end of the cycle of 52 years, the New Fire Ceremony took place to celebrate the renewal of time once the sun began to rise on the first day of a new calendar round. This event took place at the Hill of the Star (Citlaltepec).
15 We will use the Codex Borbonicus to explain the importance of this ceremony and the archaeological finds from the New Fire ceremony.

WEEK 9: Dec 3
The excavations at Zultepec (Tlaxcala) have provided us with a new insight into the Conquest of Mexico. During the excavations several skeletal remains were found, among them, fourteen skulls of Spaniards. The skulls have perforations at the parietals suggesting that they were placed in skull racks. In this session we will read the writings of Cortés comparing and contrasting them with the archaeological finds. The variety of artifacts both European and Skulls found at Zultepec (photograph Aztec throw new light on the Arqueología Mexicana) Conquest Period.
