Aztec army: Encyclopedia - Warrior

A warrior is a person habitually engaged in war and/or skilled in the waging of war. In tribal societies, warriors often form a caste or class of their own.

Aztec army: Encyclopedia - Codex

A codex (Latin for book; plural codices) is a handwritten book from late Antiquity or the Early Middle Ages. Although the Romans used the codex and similar precursors made of wood for taking notes and other informal writings, the first recorded use of the codex for literary works dates from the late first century, when Martial experimented with the format. At that time, the roll (also called a scroll) was the dominant medium for literary works and would remain dominant for secular works until the 4th century. As far back ...

Until the age of fourteen, the education of children was in the hands of their parents, but supervised by the authorities of their calpulli.

Aztec army: Encyclopedia II - Military history of Mexico - Pre–Colonial Era

During the age before Spanish conquest of Mexico, several wars ensued between the Aztecs, and several other native tribes. Alliances between the Aztec state and Texcoco had become central to these pre colonial wars. Several of these conflicts were evolved to an organized warfare, known as the flower wars. In flower wars the primary objective was to injure or capture the enemy, rather than killing as in Western warfare. Prisoners-of-war were ritually sacrificed to Aztec gods. Cannibalism was also a center feature to this ...

In 1519, the native civilizations of Mexico were invaded by Spain, and two years later in 1521, the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan was conquered. Francisco Hernández de Córdoba explored the shores of South Mexico in 1517, followed by Juan de Grijalva in 1518.
