First Blog - Aztec food

Aztec Food. Wow, what a sight! The food was delicious, one thing that caught my eye was the walk down to the markets, because I got to watch the traders on their boats. I decided to go to the markets because it was something that was at the top of my list for a long time. As I arrived I immediately saw what I wanted to get. I went for the beans and tomato, a popular pick. I noticed that the word avocado (ahuacatl )  and tomato (xitomatl )  in Aztec language was spelled similar to English. The food was exceptionally good but it was particularly spicy! I payed 20 cacao seeds. I sat down next to a beautiful apple tree, and met a young girl who asked for my food, I was full anyway, so I happily gave her the rest. She clearly was in need, I could tell by her clothes since she didn't have a lot on. I heard that the more clothes you have on the higher class you are.

Blog Three - The calendar

A little bit more bearable this time! I noticed a shining stone in the distance, I had read all about this, its a Mayan calendar! They used this stone to tell the time, its formed on a 260 day cycle instead of 365.  This is a recorded conversation I had with a villager; Me: Hey I was wondering how the calendar worked? Commoner: Well, it's broken up into units and has twenty days on a stone, each day has a symbol. Me: Well then, how can you tell what day it is? Commoner: To tell the day, you put the number with the symbol, there is a small circle in the stone which has numbers and you match the symbol up with the number to get you day. The calendar gets move every day. All together it adds up to 260 days in a year.  Nowadays a year takes up 365 days!  If your interested in the Aztec life follow along my blog to ...
