Ancient Mexico: An Enthralling Guide to the Aztec Empire, Maya Civilization, Olmecs, Toltecs, and Teotihuacan
Billy Wellman
Five manuscripts in one audiobook:
Explore the mesmerizing origins of the Aztecs, discover how a wandering desert tribe came to rule much of present-day Mexico, and investigate the spectacular – albeit somewhat depraved – culture that set their civilization apart.
Maya Civilization takes readers on a journey that few have taken, deep into the Mayans' lineage, customs, politics, and daily life. Join us as we delve deep into the Maya story, uncovering stories, facts, and theories about this important – yet perplexing – society.
Olmec Civilization takes readers on a journey that few have taken, deep into archaeological sites, artifacts, and the many theories surrounding the Olmecs and their history, so shrouded in mystery.
Precursors to the Aztecs (amazing in their own right), the Toltec people were the pre-columbian Mesoamerican civilization honored for their artisanship and tactile warfare – considered so fierce and respectable that the Aztecs claimed descendency from them!
