This book provides an up-to-date synthesis of Aztec culture,
applying interdisciplinary approaches (archaeology, ethnohistory
and ethnography) to reconstructing the complex and enigmatic
civilization. Frances F. Berdan offers a balanced assessment of
complementary and sometimes contradictory sources in unravelling
the ancient way of life. The book provides a cohesive view of the
Aztecs and their empire, emphasizing the diversity and complexity
of social, economic, political and religious roles played by the
many kinds of people we call 'Aztecs'. Concluding with three
integrative case studies, the book examines the stresses, dynamics
and anchors of Aztec culture and society.
