The Aztecs by Peter Chrisp
This book reveals just how much archaeology has taught us about the Aztecs, how they lived, what they wore, their beliefs, traditions, inventiveness and skill. It explains the latest archaeological techniques, looks at the future as well as the past examining how monuments and treasures can be preserved for future generations and includes three projects: a model of the Great Temple, an Eagle Warrior Headdress and a mask of the Aztec Fire God.
