i was wondering if anybody can tell me about the technology, social structure, religion, art music literature, or geography...if you can give me any information about any of these subjects and having to do with the aztecs i will give out best answer, i will take any answer for any of the subjects. or if you wanna do the whole assignment, the format is all of the subjects on the aztecs and two paragraphs per subject.
 
the Aztecs served a pantheon of gods and made human sacrifice to them atop their temple pyramids. they were a relatively small tribe who absorbed the people they conquered. they conquered others to have a ready supply of sacrifices for their religious rituals,and it was considered an honor to be sacrificed. they were cannibalistic and the bodies of the sacrificial victims were eaten by the poorer class of people. the social structure was highly stylized and they were traders and barterers.they absorbed the knowledge of conquered tribes and embellished the knowledgs learned.
 
aztecs built their cities out of anything. mostly using wood roped together to create the foundations for their land. Aztecs used trade and used cocoa for money. they believed strongly in the gods of the sun, crops, love, fertility etc. and often had harsh punishments for those who didnt believe.
