	Aztec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Classical Nahuatl (also known as Aztec, and simply Nahuatl) is a term used to describe the variants of the Nahuatl language that were spoken in the Valley of Mexico -- and central Mexico as a lingua franca -- at the time of the Spanish conquest of Mexico.
		In the writings of Bernardino de Sahagún, Aztec "anonymous informants" defended the practice of human sacrifice by asserting that it was not very different from the European way of waging warfare: Europeans killed the warriors in battle, Aztecs killed the warriors after the battle.
		The Aztec staple foods included maize, beans and squash to which were often added chilis and tomatoes, all prominent parts of the Mexican diet to this day.

		In particular the Borg, who in Dr. Who, 30 years previously, are known as the Cybermen.
		Regrettably many of the finest stories of Dr. Who (such as Marco Polo) were destroyed during a short-sighted BBC archive purge in the 70's.

	THE AZTECS SPEAK - AN AZTEC ACCOUNT OF THE CONQUEST OF MEXICO. PART 1 - BY SHEP LENCHEK - IN MEXICO CONNECT
		While the Aztec account of the Spanish Conquest of Mexico does not basically change the facts we are already familiar with, it does detail brutality and massacres on the part of the Spaniards that historians have simply glossed over.
		The records also reveal that the Aztecs were captives of their own legends, principally the one about a great god/leader, Quetzalcoatal, who the Toltecs, the people who proceeded the Aztecs as rulers of the Valley of Mexico, credited with bringing them civilization.
		Thus, the Aztec concept of war after their empire was established was not the total defeat of an enemy, but rather a short skirmish to capture warriors to sacrifice to their Gods.

	The Aztecs
		When Barbara is mistaken for the reincarnation of the Aztec's High Priest, Yetaxa, she seizes the opportunity to put an end to the ceremonial rites of human sacrifice and save the Aztecs from self-destruction.
		She joins the Doctor, who tries to engage her attention to a stone in the tomb wall which bears Yetaxa's sign, but she is more interested in the beans.
		Barbara, who hopes to be gone from here by then, tacitly agrees to this for now, saying only that she wants all three of her servants to be at the ceremony, especially her handmaiden.

	Homework Hotline - Mythology
		Another interpretation sees myths as developing from an improper separation between the human and nonhuman; animals, rocks, and stars are considered to be on a level of intelligence with people, and the dead are thought to inhabit the world of the living in spiritual form.
		Those who characterize the ordinary as profane and secular view myths as a form of sacred speech and thus as particular manifestations of a universal religious sensibility.
		Myths treating the origin of fire, or its retrieval from some being who has stolen it or refuses to share it; the millennium to come; and the dead or the relation between the living and the dead, are common.

		By the time the TARDIS crew leave, Autloc is a broken man who's estranged from his people, Cameca has had her heart broken, Susan's guard and Ixca are dead and Tlotoxl, without the balancing force Autloc provided, reigns triumphant.

		Ironically, the Aztec ritual of human sacrifice--in which the hearts of defeated warriors were torn beating from their bodies--contributed to the defeat of Motecuhzoma's own warriors: While Cort‚s's men fought to kill, Aztecs attempted to capture enemies for sacrifice.
		Interestingly, despite the Aztec success in the building arts and in supplying food for large cities, they had no beasts of burden- -everything was transported by water or by human porters; horses were introduced by the Spanish.
		Dr. Smith's work tends to emphasize the day-to-day life of the Aztec villagers and peasantry, whereas Dr. Townsend focuses more on the grand sweep of cities, nobility, and empire.

		The Aztecs is the first Doctor Who DVD devoted to the long-running British science fiction television series' initial season (1963-64), so it should be a valuable addition to any fan's collection.
		The Aztecs was one Doctor Who story where it all came together - cast, director, set design, writer, and musicians all worked well to make an interesting, educational story about one of our most fascinating ancient civilisations.
		The Aztecs is the first William Hartnell story to get to DVD and has been lovingly restored to look as close to its original video tape format.

		This is about the time "Dr Who" stopped being a pre-teen children's show and started moving up toward a teenage fandom -- well, actually, the original viewers were growing up along with the show
		The plots and dialogue were way beyond the original kid's show, and it appealed to the people who had been captivated by the camp Batman series a decade earlier.
		[And whatever happened to this one who was supposed to make it on Fox (like Bea Arthurs' abortive attempt to transplant Fawlty Towers to California)?] Dr Who finally used up all his reincarnations.

		Once the Aztecs began conquering other kingdoms in the 1430s, he was transformed into a universal power controlling the earth, the heavens, and the rising of the sun.
		The food the Aztec god must have so the sun would rise tomorrow was a daily -- daily -- supply of dozens -- dozens -- of live, beating human hearts, physically ripped out of a living human being chest and placed in the chacmool, the sacred receptacle, fresh, hot, and still palpitating.
		It rightfully belongs to the Muslims, who are therfore justified in attacking the invaders.

		In particular, he was astounded by the sharp contrasts inherent in that society, which had made enormous strides in astronomy, medicine and agriculture and yet forged no metal weapons or tools, was ignorant of the potential of the wheel, and practised human sacrifice.
		Shortly before The Aztecs was added to the schedule as Serial F, it had been agreed that each of the four regular Doctor Who castmembers would enjoy a two-week holiday during the remainder of the season.

		The Doctor is quite upset with Barbara for stopping the human sacrifice and interfering with the Aztec people and their way of life.
		Another Aztec called Ixta (Ian Cullen) is upset because Ian is going to replace him general of their army because he is a servant of the High Priest.
		It is a mildly interesting commentary, but as is the case with previous Doctor Who commentaries, the actors tend to laugh and reminisce and we don’t learn a whole lot about how these episodes were made.

		Tlotoxl is an unpleasant character who quickly sees through Barbara's disguise as Yetaxa and spends the rest of the story trying to destroy her.
		The Aztecs, although not without its limitations, is a good slice of 1960s Who, and the high standard of design and remastering just pushes the score up to a four.
		Hartnell's Dr Who is severe, pompous, self-involved, distracted, an old genius on the verge of dementia.

	MILESAGO - Groups & Solo Artists - Billy Thorpe & The Aztecs
		If the Aztecs' musical chops suffered as a result of not being able to be heard, few seemed to mind - the concert performances remained exciting events which drew ever-increasing crowd numbers and national popularity.
		One particularly notable, innovative, and ultimately monumental Aztec event in 1973; mounted in the wake of the band's incredible popularity and dominance at this time; was the band's farewell concert at the brand new Sydney Opera House.
		It remains the Aztecs most successful studio album, and apart from the undiluted power of its music, is a strong testament to the skills of erstwhile Aztec drummer/producer/engineer/archivist Gil Matthews.

	Doctor Who
		For the uninitiated, Doctor Who is the longest-running fantasy TV series in history, airing from 1963 to 1989 in its native United Kingdom (followed by occasional specials and a TV-movie revival attempt) and finally in 2005 the series will be returning with a full series of 13 episodes.
		Doctor Who was about ideas and pioneered the kind of sophisticated mixed-level storytelling.
		Its format was the key to its longevity: it is the simple story of the Doctor, a mysterious traveller in space and time, whose vehicle (the TARDIS, one of the icons of the series) can take him and his companions anywhere at any time.

		Originally aired in 1964, “The Aztecs” is a shining tribute to how good Doctor Who can truly be, even with an old set of episodes from the series' initial season.
		However, the darker side is also discovered, mainly in the fact that Aztecs performed ritual sacrifices on a regular basis to appease their Gods.
		This Doctor Who DVD is also special in the fact that the BBC had to go through great lengths in restoring this story from a filmed copy of the original video recording, which no longer existed.

		Yeah but remember it is always the toughest guy who wins in schoolyard until someone gets the gun.
		I suspect it is all about the strength of the structures you leave behind ie legal, human rights, distribution of wealth, separation of powers, constitution and external influences that are needed.
		Of course being a good witness to your faith opens up a whole new dimension that I no longer play within but who knows it might just do something but I haven't seen the Pope or Archbishops do much for the masses.
