Five centuries ago, before Spanish conquistadors arrived, what's now Mexico City was the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan—and it took the European invaders' breath away. It was built on an island threaded with canals; it was one of the largest cities in the world; and the Spanish could hardly believe the sheer volume of food sold in the city's main market, let alone the quantity and variety of dishes enjoyed by the Aztec leader, Montezuma. But how did a city built in a lake—and located in a part of the world without cows, sheep, pigs, or chicken—grow enough to feed quarter of a million people? What does it mean to eat like an Aztec, and can you still do it today? This episode, we're time traveling (and real traveling) to find out! Join us on a trip to taste the flavors of Tenochtitlan, and explore the endangered “floating islands” that fed the city—with a menu that included insect eggs, blue-green algae, and some adorable salamanders that just might hold the secret of eternal youth.

En la cuarta conferencia del ciclo “Mayas y mexicas en la construcción de la civilización mesoamericana”, Leonardo López Luján, investigador, arqueólogo y director del Proyecto Templo Mayor en la Ciudad de México, describe el recinto sagrado de Tenochtitlan, centro ceremonial y político del Imperio mexica, así como las excavaciones arqueológicas en el centro histórico de la Ciudad de México, que revelan la estrecha relación entre la política, el arte y la religión en la civilización mexica.Más información de este acto
The Hidden History of Texas Looking for Gold and Glory – Before I get too far into it today, how about subscribing to the podcast. Tell your friends that you've found the coolest place on the net to learn about Texas history. Well maybe not the coolest, but a pretty cool place, thanks I'd appreciate it. As I've discussed in the past, the Spanish presence in the Americas was pretty much an accident. Until Columbus bumped into the islands of Guanahani (Watling Island in the Bahamas) which Columbus named "San Salvador", Cuba, and Hispaniola (present-day Haiti and the Dominican Republic). They had no idea anything or anyone was between them and Asia, remember they were looking for a shortcut route to India. Even then it wasn't until 1519 when Alonso Álvarez de Pineda mapped the Gulf Coast for the first time that they began to realize they had stumbled upon something far different than what they originally thought. So, what intrigued the Spanish so much about this new continent they encountered? I've talked about how in 1528 Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca, explored the Gulf Coast and his exploration fell apart. He got shipwrecked and he and some of his crew wandered across present-day Texas and northern Mexico. During their journeys and capture they heard stories from the people about cities or places that were “wealthy”. Now we don't know exactly what the indigenous people meant by wealth or how they described the various locations, but de Vaca's later telling of those encounters sparked an interest in what the Spanish called or were labeled the "Seven Cities of Gold" or “the Seven Cities of Cibola” But why? Why would these stories matter to the Spanish? In the early 8th century Muslims had conquered what is now Spain and Portugal. The story goes that in 714 seven Catholic bishops and their faithful followers fled across the Atlantic to a land known as Antilia, the name of which, incidentally, was the source of the name Antilles, which was initially applied to the West Indian islands of the Caribbean. The story was that when they fled, they took with them vast amounts of wealth, especially in gold and silver and each of the bishops had established a city. The story, or fable, was that those 7 cities were to be found in this ‘new' country. However, the Antillean islands failed to produce large quantities of gold and silver, but by 1539 the lands that Cabeza de Vaca and his companions reported on were thought to contain an El Dorado (or The Gold) known as Cíbola. In that year, Viceroy Antonio de Mendoza dispatched Fray Marcos de Niza and the African Estevanico to search the area. This exploration cost the life of Estevanico at Háwikuh, the southernmost of the Zuñi pueblos in western New Mexico. On his return to New Spain (today's Mexico), Fray Marcos reported that he had seen golden cities, the smallest of which was larger than Mexico City. Today we know that the good frier exaggerated what he saw, why I have no idea, but he definitely didn't see any golden cities and certainly not one larger than Mexico City would have been at that time. In 1539, Mexico City, then known as Tenochtitlan, was a large and populous city. Estimates for its population ranged from 200,000 to 400,000, so as I said, the good frier was a, as we say, a teller of tall tales. However, in 1540 a follow-up expedition of Francisco Vázquez de Coronado captured Háwikuh and learned the true nature of it as well as other nearby pueblos. In the following year, disappointed over the failure to find the Seven Cities of Cíbola Coronado launched a futile search for Quivira-(another legendary wealthy city) an undertaking that crossed the Panhandle. His toute took him from Arizona to New Mexico into Texas up to Oklahoma, and finally Kansas. It was there that he did find Quivira, it was situated in what is now central Kansas, now nobody is really certain of its exact location, and most think it was near present-day Lyons or Salina. What did he find?

When Hernán Cortés and his men first laid eyes on the gleaming white pyramids of Tenochtitlan, they thought they were mountains of silver. How did they overthrow such a powerful kingdom in just three months?Professor Suzannah Lipscomb explores the indigenous perspectives of the conquest, the role of Cortés, and the resilience of Aztec culture. Together with Professor Camilla Townsend, Suzannah debunks myths about the Aztecs and discovers their rich societal structures, religious practices, and the impacts of European colonisation. They discuss how technological differences played a crucial role in the conquest and how Aztec culture adapted under Spanish rule, preserving their history against odds.More on the Americas:How Indigenous Americans Discovered Europe >Presented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

This is all eight chapters of my Aztec Memories series, all in one place. I'm hoping this makes it easier for some folks out there to listen to the whole series, and it will allow me to release a video version of this podcast--coming very soon! Thanks for listening and for all the support over the years... The story of the Aztec Empire is a story unlike any other. From it's origins as a nomadic underdog, to it's ascendance at the rich and powerful city of Tenochtitlan, to it's clash of civilizations with the mighty Spanish Empire, this is a historical story that will never happen again. If you think you know the full story, think again. For hundreds of years myths and half-truths about the Spanish conquest have clouded the historical narrative. Even the name "Aztec" belies the deep connection between myth and history. Five hundred years later, it's time to delve into Aztec Memories. -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

V zgodnjih desetletjih novega veka, ko se stari svet čudi dosežkom novo odkritega sveta, predvsem današnje Amerike, kjer koristoljubni pustolovci konkvistadorji pohlepno prežijo na tamkajšnje bogastvo (osupne jih npr. izjemna arhitektura Aztekov), Evropa začenja spoznavati do tedaj neznane kulture in nepredstavljive podobe življenja oddaljenih dežel. Tudi uveljavljeni umetniki, slikarji, kiparji, tiskarji in trgovci z umetninami se spogledujejo z novimi motivi. Vedoželjni umetniki najdejo v pripovedih in materialnih dokazih, neprecenljivi predmetnosti, skoraj neusahljiv vir motivik za umetniško interpretacijo, nove spodbude, predvsem pa razcvet svoje domišljije.Vplivi na likovno umetnost, ki jo bogatijo predstave o tujih kulturah, zaznamujejo tudi umetniško prakso in zbirateljstvo našega nekdanjega plemstva. O tem in o drugih značilnostih nekdanjih zbirk aristokracije bo več povedala dr. Tina Košak, umetnostna zgodovinarka in anglistka z Umetnostnozgodovinskega inštituta Franceta Steleta ZRC SAZU in docentka na Filozofski fakulteti Univerze v Mariboru. V zvezi s tem velja omeniti, da so na današnji dan leta 1525 (28. februarja, op. p.: včasih se omenja tudi letnica 1524) zavojevalci ubili zadnjega azteškega vladarja Cuauhtémoca.Azteški imperij, ki se je razlegal predvsem na območju današnje Mehike, velja za enega najbolj cvetočih, razvitih in naprednih civilizacij. Njihova moderna prestolnica Tenochtitlan je nastala na majhnem otoku sredi jezera Texcoco, med drugim so razvijali (književnost) in pisavo ter slikali likovne podobe, uporabljali koledarje in zaupali v smisel svojih zgodb, legend in mitov. Vendar je bilo kmalu po nasilnem zavojevanju, zavzetju, pustošenju in iztrebljanju veliko tega uničenega. V nekoliko izkrivljeni obliki, ko gre za odnos do resnice in dokumentarnosti, duhovnih in mišljenjskih praks ter zgodovinskih dogodkov, vseeno sled staroselske kulture, s katero je tako okrutno obračunal Cortes, zato da bi izrabil znanje in se okoristil z neprecenljivimi primeri srebrnega in zlatega bogastva, najdemo upodobljeno v Florentinskem kodeksu, ki vsebuje slikovni, ilustrativni popis zgodovine ter kulturnih, verskih in vsakdanjih praks Aztekov ter bitk s Španci, pa tudi opise bolezni, naravnih danosti in živalstva ...Vse to je odmevalo tudi v delih, ki jih je posedovalo plemstvo na naših današnjih tleh. V oddaji ne bo govora le o vplivih tujih kultur, ampak o ambicijah plemstva, ki se je ponašalo z deli takratnih velikih mojstrov, katerih imena nikdar niso poniknila v pozabo. Sprehodili se bomo po slovenskih gradovih, kot sta Vurberk in grad Hrastovec ...

En el año 1519, la ciudad imperial de Tenochtitlan era un lugar emocionante, rico y poderoso, pero los hombres de ultramar llegarían para cambiarlo todo. En dos años, Hernán Cortés fue capaz de forjar una alianza que acabó por destruir la magnífica ciudad, eliminar su antigua religión y crear un nuevo reino para su rey. La enfermedad que transportaban sus hombres sin saberlo remataría el trabajo, acabando con la gente que quedaba del imperio de México. Este es un documental que habla sobre la invasión del imperio azteca por parte de Hernán Cortés y su ejército, un hecho que los aztecas habían predicho.

In November of 1519, Aztec Emperor Moctezuma and Spanish Conquistador Hernando Cortez met on the causeway leading to Tenochtitlan in maybe the first official contact between powerful leaders of the Old and New Worlds. One of the great what if moments in world history, this was the opening act in what would eventually lead to a clash of civilizations between the two peoples. The war that followed was violent and brutal, and the stakes were everything. This is Part V in a series on the rise, fall, and enduring legacy of the Aztec Empire. It covers the war between the Aztec and the Spanish, the initial meeting on the causeway, tactics and strategy for each side, La Noche Triste or The Night of Sorrows, various massacres, and the end of the war. -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

In this follow-up episode we explore the rulers of Tenochtitlan, or the tlatoque. From the first tlatoani, Acamapichtli, to the final traditional tlatoani, Cuauhtémoc, we'll explore all the "Aztec rulers." In this episode Tenochtitlan's new rulers are aggressive and eager to expand the empire. Itzcoatl, and his ambitious nephew Tlacaelel, brought a new leadership style that would free the Mexica from their Tepanec overlords, and take that same fight out into the Valley of Mexico.Part 1 - Itzcoatl, the fourth ruler of Tenochtitlan.Part 2 - Moctezuma Ilhuicamina, the fifth ruler of Tenochtitlan.Part 3 - Axayacatl, the sixth ruler of Tenochtitlan.~ Music Credits ~Araucanian War Song by Down for the CountAway by MeydänDaniel Birch, www.danielbirchmusic.comBreathe by Daniel BirchSustained Light by Daniel BirchThe Gates Are Locked by Daniel BirchIntro sample, Sir Niney's Rock by Niney the ObserverEpisode 11 CreditsWritten, researched, performed and produced by Jeremy Lipps.

The Aztec Empire at its height in the 1400's was a flourishing civilization that had a rich social and cultural tradition. In addition to the political realities of statebuilding-war, tribute, human sacrifice, and slavery, the Mexica people took care of their families, tended to gardens, ate rich foods, listened to music, participated in religious ceremonies, bought and sold goods in markets, and took part in long distance trade. Life in Tenochtitlan at the height of empire was a sight to behold, but something was coming over the horizon that would alter that vision of empire forever... This is Part III in a series on the rise, fall, and enduring legacy of the Aztec Empire. It discusses social and cultural life in Tenochtitlan, everyday life for different classes of people, and the political realities of day to day life. The next episode begins with the arrival of the Spanish on the shores of the Yucatan peninsula. -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

A red sun dawns over San Francisco. Juxtaposed against clouds and sea, it forms a patriotic tableau: blood red, deathly white, and the blue of the void. As its first rays touch the city, the frantic traffic slows to a crawl; even the birds cease to sing. It is Election Day in the United States. Future generations will number American elections among history's greatest and most terrible spectacles. As we remember the Games in the Colosseum, or the bloody knives of Tenochtitlan, so they will remember us. That which other ages would relegate to a tasteful coronation or mercifully quick coup, we extend into an eighteen-month festival of madness. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/mantic-monday-judgment-day
We finish off the Big 3 of Ancient Meso/South American civilizations with The Aztecs. Originally hailing from what is now the southern United States, the Mexica would enter the Valley the Mexico to find the place pretty crowded already. The only real spot left was a swampy marshy island in the middle of Lake Texcoco. Through innovation and engineering they created floating gardens to grow crops and sustain their growing population. The island that was once their disadvantage had now help them to grow and become valley's dominant peoples, ruling from their city of Tenochtitlan . Grand palaces, magnificent temples of sacrifice and enormous outdoor markets had the newly arrived Spanish Conquistadors in shock and awe. Well it wasn't long before Hernan Cortez and his Spanish troops started trying to take over the place. Find out what happened to the civilization that Mexico was literally built on.

From their new base in Tenochtitlan, the Mexica people slowly built the Aztec Empire over the course of the 1300's. While the "myth of the Aztec" ascribes this accomplishment to the barbarism of human sacrifice and brutality, the Mexica both lived in a particular context and shaped their own unique political environment. Demystifying what the Spanish referred to as superstition and barbarism, this episode looks at the Aztec political system, and how the complex interplay of many different factors allowed the Aztec to dominate the Valley of Mexico. This is Part II in a series on the rise, fall, and enduring legacy of the Aztec Empire. It discusses the political realities of the Aztec Empire, including polygny, marriage alliances, slavery, tribute systems, warfare, brutality and atrocities, and slavery. This episode also discusses the Mexica relationship with Tlaxcala, a rival city state, and the ritualized and brutal "Flower Wars" fought every year between them. -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

The story of the Aztec Empire is a story unlike any other. From it's origins as a nomadic underdog, to it's ascendance at the rich and powerful city of Tenochtitlan, to it's clash of civilizations with the mighty Spanish Empire, this is a historical story that will never happen again. If you think you know the story, think again. For hundreds of years myths and half-truths about the Spanish conquest have clouded the historical narrative. Even the name "Aztec" belies the deep connection between myth and history. This is Part I in a series on the rise, fall, and enduring legacy of the Aztec Empire. It looks at the migration of early man into the Americas, the origins of the Mexica people as wandering nomad warriors, mesoamerican history and the development of agriculture there, the legacy of the Olmec, Maya, Toltec, and Teotihuacan, the Nahua language and cultural group, the arrival of the Mexica at Tenochtitlan, and more. The story will continue in Part II. -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

Santiago González comenta el encuentro entre Sánchez y Almodóvar tras el plantón de Anne Hathaway y la ignorancia de la nueva presidenta de México.
Tenochtitlan, fundada en 1325 en una isla del lago Texcoco, fue la capital del Imperio azteca y una de las ciudades más avanzadas de su tiempo. Los mexicas, guiados por Huitzilopochtli, construyeron una metrópoli con templos, palacios y canales. Su esplendor terminó en 1521 con la conquista castellana liderada por Hernán Cortés, quien, tras un largo asedio, destruyó la ciudad. Esto marcó el fin del Imperio azteca y el comienzo de la colonización por la Monarquía Hispánica. Te lo cuentan Luis Castrillón, María Vázquez y Antonio Gómez. ✌️Victoria Podcast pertenece al Canal de 🏭Factoría Casus Belli ⭐Victoria Podcast forma parte del 📀 Sello Ivoox Originals, por lo que solo lo podrás escuchar en esta plataforma. 📚 Zeppelin Books zeppelinbooks.com es un sello editorial de la 🏭 Factoría Casus Belli. ⚡SUSCRÍBETE para recibir cada semana un nuevo programa en tu iVoox. ❤️Danos un LIKE si crees que nos lo hemos merecido. 👍Estamos en TWITTER como @PodcastVictoria @PodcastVictoria 💪SI QUIERES APOYARNOS puedes hacerlo con el 🆒botón azul de apoyar, y por un euro y medio al mes tendrás ACCESO ANTICIPADO de 4 semanas a todos los programas, y además SIN PUBLICIDAD.

La conquista de México en 1521
Being a scientist is fun: you conduct new experiments every day (some of them are totally crazy!). And all these experiments can prove incredible facts, and we chose those we considered the most amazing and unbelievable. TIMESTAMPS ‘Pinky promise' means 'If I break the vow, I'll cut off my finger' 0:39 Jupiter and Saturn have diamond rains 1:14 There are more than 1.6 million ants per person on Earth 1:53 There are more artificial flamingos than live ones 2:16 The strawberry is not a berry 2:46 Bananas, though, are berries 3:10 There is a hollow 100-foot worm living in the ocean 3:35 Mithridates VI was immune to poisons 4:06 If we lived in darkness, we would be able to stay up for 36 hours 4:33 Our foot is as long as our forearm 5:17 Neil Armstrong's space suit was made at a bra factory 5:43 "Gadget" was one of the first three atomic bombs 6:05 Ann Hodges is the only person to survive a meteorite strike 6:33 Koalas have a unique fingerprint pattern 7:09 The surface area of Russia is bigger than that of Pluto 7:36 What if a monkey recognizes itself in the mirror 8:00 Dolphins can talk on the phone 8:33 Oxford University is older than the Aztec Empire 9:07 You can survive a shark attack by staying still 9:29 SUMMARY - When making a promise, children link their little fingers and say a certain vow, different in every culture. In fact, during the Edo period, bandit clans had a ritual of cutting off their right little fingers to prove their loyalty. - Myrmecologists worldwide made an estimate that 1 to 10 quadrillion ants are living on Earth now. That means there are more than 1 million of these insects for each human! - There are several times more plastic flamingos worldwide than there are live ones. The latter are counted at 2 to 3 million, while the number of their plastic counterparts reaches almost 1 billion. - As a matter of fact, the "berry" of the strawberry isn't at all its fruit. It's just an overgrown receptacle that carries the pure fruit on it. - The banana plant is, in fact, giant grass, and bananas are its berries. According to the definition, a berry is a "soft and juicy fruit containing several seeds." - A pyrosome looks like a giant transparent and hollow worm, but it, in fact, consists of thousands of organisms that glow in the dark and replicate themselves. - Mithridates VI of Pontus had been taking small doses of various poisons since childhood to work up an immunity to them. During the riot, the Romans wanted to take him hostage, and Mithridates tried to poison himself but couldn't because of his training. - Our thumb is as long as our nose, and our lips are as long as our index fingers. - Few know that the space suit of the first man on the Moon was made at a factory which produced bras and lingerie in Dover, DE. Well, we just hope Neil felt comfortable in it. - Russia's surface area is 17,098,246 sq. km., and Pluto's surface area is 16,650,000 sq. km. - Every dolphin has its signal name that appears in adolescence and is kept their whole life. It's known that dolphins can tell their relatives' signals from all the rest. - The first students came to Oxford in 1096, while the Aztec city-state of Tenochtitlan was founded in 1325. That means the university is 200 years older. - Keep an eye on the shark: when it has passed by you, try to find a way out of the water. However, if you can't and have to defend yourself, hit it on its gills, eyes, or the tip of its nose. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: Facebook: / brightside Instagram: / brightgram 5-Minute Crafts Youtube: https://www.goo.gl/8JVmuC ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with Dr. Victor Davis Hanson, a senior fellow in military history and classics at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University and NY Times bestselling author. A brilliant historian and an intellectual giant, Victor Davis Hanson is the author of numerous books including his most recent "The End of Everything: How Wars Descend into Annihilation." Our conversation with Victor Davis Hanson, Professor Emeritus of Classics at California State University, Fresno, focuses on the following issues impacting America and our allies abroad: — The Failures of America's foreign policy under the Biden-Harris Administration and the risk it poses to Americans and trusted allies abroad including Israel. — Concerns raised about the undemocratic nature of the Democratic Party. — How Washington's policies are impacting American families on the economic and security fronts. — What key policies are needed to benefit all Americans —What can we expect in the run-up to the 2024 US Presidential election The End of Everything | Victor Davis Hanson In this “gripping account of catastrophic defeat” (Barry Strauss), a New York Times–bestselling historian charts how and why some societies chose to utterly destroy their foes, and warns that similar wars of obliteration are possible in our time. War can settle disputes, topple tyrants, and bend the trajectory of civilization—sometimes to the breaking point. From Troy to Hiroshima, moments when war has ended in utter annihilation have reverberated through the centuries, signaling the end of political systems, cultures, and epochs. Though much has changed over the millennia, human nature remains the same. Modern societies are not immune from the horror of a war of extinction. In The End of Everything, military historian Victor Davis Hanson narrates a series of sieges and sackings that span the age of antiquity to the conquest of the New World to show how societies descend into barbarism and obliteration. In the stories of Thebes, Carthage, Constantinople, and Tenochtitlan, he depicts war's drama, violence, and folly. Highlighting the naivete that plagued the vanquished and the wrath that justified mass slaughter, Hanson delivers a sobering call to contemporary readers to heed the lessons of obliteration lest we blunder into catastrophe once again. "In The End of Everything, Hanson tells compelling and harrowing stories of how civilizations perished. He helps us consider contemporary affairs in light of that history, think about the unthinkable, and recognize the urgency of trying to prevent our own demise." —H.R. McMaster, author of Battlegrounds Bio | Victor Davis Hanson Victor Davis Hanson is the Martin and Illie Anderson Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution; his focus is classics and military history.

Bedtime History: Inspirational Stories for Kids and Families
In this episode, journey with the fictional Chantico and her family of Aztec merchants as they travel through the wilds of ancient Mexico to the bustling metropolis of Tenochtitlan.
Between 1998 and 2006, at least 48 elderly women were strangled to death in Mexico City. These murders would lead to Mexico's first ever investigation into an active serial killer. The task force was certain that a man was responsible for the killings, and were shocked to realize the killer was a middle-aged mother of four. A wannabe luchadora who told friends she once wrestled under the name of the Lady of Silence.

You are probably familiar with several of the great pre-Columbian cities in the Americas. Places like Tikal in Guatemala, Copan in Honduras, and Tenochtitlan in Mexico are some of the great legacies of the civilizations that came before. However, all of these population centers were located in Mesoamerican. Most of the people who lived in what is today the United States and Canada were nomadic and never built any large cities. However, there was one major exception. Learn more about Cahokia, the largest pre-Columbian settlement in North America, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Aztec Empire was a large and sophisticated one, stretching at its height from the Pacific coast to the Gulf of Mexico. But in August 1521, after a last stand on the steps of their temple buildings, the Aztec defenders of Tenochtitlan surrendered to the Spanish forces of Hernán Cortés and his Mesoamerican allies.To talk about the fall of the Aztec Empire, Dan is joined by Matthew Restall, Director of Latin American Studies at Penn State University. Matthew challenges some of the commonly held views on how Cortés was able to achieve this feat, how the fall of Tenochtitlan was not the end of the war and the myth of Spanish superiority.Discover the past with exclusive history documentaries and ad-free podcasts presented by world-renowned historians from History Hit.
