food.

This meant, amaranth (a grain), maize, rabbits, wild (bear) garlic, small birds, potatoes (!), and paw-paw. Let's not forget cocoa beans... ie. chocolate! They used cocoa beans as currency.

You could also buy brightly colored cords, for clothing, binding and accounting, as they used knotted cords for keeping track of numbers and making lists.

Probably also cloth, blankets, sandals, and feathers. The Aztecs were really fond of feathers for decoration and high fashion.

They probably also sold statues of deities and these little ceramic doo-dads that you could cement to altars in the home that represented various deities and sacred days on the calendar. The result was a unique mosaic of prayer on the surface of a personal altar.

They did lots of pottery, so I'd imagine it would be in a market, too. They were also skilled in making objects out of gold and jade, and like for the Chinese, Jade was lucky.

I'm not sure if gold and jade objects were available for any but the nobility, as they had ceremonial traits. However they had other jewelry, mostly in silver and copper.

If you were hungry, you could buy tamales and tacos... though only the soft shell kind, that I know of. The tamales would have had rabbit or turkey in them, and the tacos would have had tadpoles or edible insects in them. Rather different cuisine than we have!

If you needed a utility knife, you could buy one of those, too... but the blade was made out of a volcanic glass we call obsidian. The color was usually black, though gray, green blue and even orange have been found rarely. This would have been hand knapped (chipped) by a very patient person. This blade is many times sharper than you could get with good flint. A man in the modern day actually knapped a set of working surgeons blades for his surgeon to use during his heart surgery! They were sharper than a razor blade.
