Jacques Soustelle’s Daily Life of The Aztecs is one of the more detailed accounts of the daily activities and rituals of the Aztec Indians I have read.
In his discussion of family life, Soustelle stresses the importance of Aztec religion and its social Soustelle, goes on to discuss the religious ceremonies and traditions of the Aztec religion in great detail.
Soustelle also covers a subject that I have rarely encountered in my past readings of Aztec culture, which is the role of women and children in this respective society and time period.
