It was not just one European, it was the Spanish Conquistadors lead by Cortes.
The European explorer who destroyed the Aztec civilization was Hernán Cortés. In 1519, he led an expedition that ultimately resulted in the conquest of the Aztec Empire in present-day Mexico. Cortés and his forces, aided by indigenous allies, captured Tenochtitlán in 1521, leading to the fall of the Aztec civilization and significant changes to the region's society and culture.
