Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The first American civilization, the Olmec, arose in Mesoamerica around 1200 BCE. They became the dominant culture in the region until around 900 BCE, when they abandoned San Lorenzo and re-located to a new city, La Venta, 100 kilometers northeast of San Lorenzo on a ridge above the Palma River. #2 The Olmecs were the largest and most powerful society in the region, but they left no writing, making it difficult to ascertain what happened to them. The Olmecs were probably destroyed as a result of some internal revolt or insurrection, or perhaps they were overwhelmed by some environmental catastrophe.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Aztecs rose to power late in the history of Mesoamerica. Other significant cultures such as the Olmecs, the Maya, and the Zapotecs had flourished for over a thousand years before the Aztec Empire was created. #2 The Toltecs were a people who lived in central Mexico. They were displaced by the Mexica, who were a tribe of Nahuatl-speaking people who worshiped the deity Huitzilopochtli. The Aztecs, who were named after their semi-mythical homeland of Aztlan, eventually took over their city.

Zapotec CivilizationThe Zapotecs formed one of the most important of the pre-Columbian civilizations. For one thousand years, their main city of Monte Albán was one of the largest and most sophisticated in Mesoamerica. Building this city was an astonishing engineering feat-it involved flattening a hill in the center of the Oaxaca Valley to create an artificial plateau and then constructing a series of large, ornate buildings on this inaccessible site. Maintaining this large city on a site with no natural source of water must have required an enormous and willing workforce. Despite this, Monte Albán became one of the largest and most important cities in Mesoamerica, and the Zapotecs came to dominate not just the Oaxaca Valley but many adjacent lands. Inside you will read about...✓ The Emergence of the Zapotecs and Monte Albán ✓ Monte Albán Phase 1 to 5 ✓ Zapotec Architecture, Art, and Science ✓ Zapotec Religion and Society ✓ Legacy And much more! We don't know why or how the Zapotecs suddenly seemed to acquire new engineering and architectural skills, but their rise to prominence was astonishingly swift. Once in a position of dominance, they maintained their hold over the region for more than one thousand years. Then, for reasons that are equally unclear, the Zapotecs faced a slow decline which saw them abandon Monte Albán to decay and ruin and return to the Oaxaca Valley floor to become once again a mainly agrarian, peasant people. The Zapotecs still exist as a separate culture in Mexico, but they have never regained their prominence and are now little more than one of the indigenous peoples of that region. This is the story of the rapid rise and gradual decline of the ancient Zapotec people.

Reflecting extensive archaeological fieldwork carried out under the author's direction, and richly illustrated throughout, this is the first comprehensive reference on two great but little-known Mesoamerican cultures that flourished for thousands of years in the present-day southern Mexican state of Oaxaca. The Zapotecs were skilled builders who constructed one of early America's most magnificant architectural complexes on the hilltop pf Monte Alban, a site that includes elaborately crafted temples, plaza, tombs and statuary. The nearby Mixtecs lived in smaller units and created fabulous mosaics, sculpture, and jewelry. They also developed a pictographic system of writing, which they drew on exquisite polychrome pottery and deersking codices. Through careful dechiphering and analysis of written, artistic, and architectural remains, Ancient Mesoamericans provides extraordinary glimpses of these two very different societies, their culture, rituals, and daily lives.

Discover the remarkable history of the Aztec Civilization...The Aztec Empire dominated Mesoamerica for a relatively short time-less than one hundred years-but it is remembered today more than other ancient cultures in the region which sustained for much longer. Partly that is because this was a relatively recent culture which was widely reported by the first Europeans to make contact with it. Another one of the reasons is because the Aztecs have become indelibly associated with human sacrifice. The sheer scale of these rituals caused horror and fascination in the first Europeans to encounter it. Anything up to eighty thousand victims may have been brutally killed during a single religious festival, and up to a quarter of a million people may have been sacrificed each year of Aztec rule. The seemingly insatiable need for victims to placate the Aztec gods even led to wars whose purpose was not conquest or plunder but obtaining sacrificial victims. Yet there was a great deal more to the Aztecs than human sacrifice. These people created a complex society and one of the largest cities in the world. They developed a sophisticated set of laws and made notable advances in astronomy and agriculture. In the course of less than one hundred years, the Aztecs came to dominate Mesoamerica and created an empire which looked set to continue for a very long time indeed. Then the first Spanish conquistadors arrived, and within less than two years, the Aztec Empire had been completely destroyed. This is the story of the rise and fall of the Aztec Empire. Discover a plethora of topics such as Origins The Creation of Tenochtitlan Aztec Weapons and Warfare The Triple Alliance The City of Tenochtitlan The Spanish Conquest And much more!
