Best Answer

Aztecs originally offered fruit and flowers to the Sun god to thank him for supplying the light of life. When politics and the need for fear and strife entered the culture, it was decided that human hearts were required. Conquered warriors were a prime source. Like the WMD of the day. they pretty much sacrificed their own kind(other Aztecs) or anyone they could.
