Children of the Sun is an epic retelling of the Conquest of Mexico from the Aztec point of view, and a breath-taking story of courage and loyalty, treachery and deceit. Peopled with a huge cast of characters from the agonised Emperor himself and his headstrong daughter to the enigmatic conquistador Hernan Cortes, this is a richly imagined recreation of one of history's most extraordinary civilisations and a heart-breaking lament for its fall.

From the early cities in the second millennium BC to the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan on the eve of the Spanish conquest, Ancient Mesoamericans created landscapes full of meaning and power in the center of their urban spaces. The sixteenth century description of Tenochtitlan by Bernal Diaz del Castillo and the archaeological remnants of Teotihuacan attest to the power and centrality of these urban configurations in Ancient Mesoamerican history. In Landscape and Power in Ancient Mesoamerica, Rex Koontz, Kathryn Reese-Taylor, and Annabeth Headrick explore the cultural logic that structured and generated these centers.Through case studies of specific urban spaces and their meanings, the authors examine the general principles by which the Ancient Mesoamericans created meaningful urban space. In a profoundly interdisciplinary exchange involving both archaeologists and art historians, this volume connects the symbolism of those landscapes, the performances that activated this symbolism, and the cultural poetics of these ensembles.

Legend of Tenochtitlán tells the story of the Mexica people who founded the city of Tenochtitlán. The history of the city is linked to legendary gods and goddesses. Huitzilopochtli led the Mexica people to their new home, where they found a golden eagle clutching a serpent perched on a cactus growing from a rock in a lake. In 1345, at the site where the eagle had appeared, the Mexica tribe began building the Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlán, a temple that would rise 164 feet above the city. Tenochtitlán grew to be the largest and most powerful city of Mesoamerica. Under a succession of emperors, the Aztec city expanded into a vast empire, extending from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean. In 1519, Emperor Montezuma anticipated the return of the god Quetzalcóatl, who was prophesied to arrive from the ocean in the east, sailing on a serpent-shaped ship to claim all Aztec lands in his name. Instead, Spaniard Hernán Cortés arrived in November that year. Days later Cortés imprisoned Montezuma and took control of the Aztec empire, but was later driven out by the Aztecs. A year later, the Spaniards and their allies retook Tenochtitlán after three months of battle. This victory marked the destruction of the city and the fall of the Aztec empire. In all, the land of the golden eagle had lasted almost 200 years. During Spanish rule, Mexico City rose above the ruins of Tenochtitlán. The Metropolitan Cathedral was built near the former site of the Great Pyramid. After 300 years, the Spanish withdrew and the land of the golden eagle re-emerged as Mexico. The site, where the tribes are believed to have first seen the golden eagle, is located in the Zócalo plaza in the heart of Mexico City. There every morning, a band plays the Mexican anthem as soldiers raise the Mexican flag with the symbol of Mexico: a golden eagle clutching a serpent, perched on a cactus.
