How did the Aztec and spanish cultures clash?
1. Religion The Aztec's religion based on human sacrifice horrified the Spaniards. When they arrived, the conquistadors attempted to change the Mesoamericans into Christians. 2. Warfare The different fighting styles on the battlefield created a very interesting fight. The Spanish aimed to kill, while Aztec culture caused warriors to want to capture. This is because Aztec society was based on capture - capturing enemies led to promotion in rank in the army and in society. Why did the hierarchy work like this? Because of sacrifice's importance to the Aztecs. Captured enemies were ALWAYS sacrificed to the god, Huitzilopochtli. So in other words, capturing enemies to kill on the altar led to fame and promotion. 3. Technology Although the Aztecs were technologically advanced, the Spanish had steel weapons with points (as opposed to the maces of the Aztecs). This gave the Spanish the edge in battle.
