Aztec fields were primarily cultivated by commoners known as tlalmaitlaca who were organized into groups called calpulli. They were responsible for tending to the fields, planting crops like maize, beans, and squash, and ensuring a sufficient harvest for the community. The Aztec government also played a role in overseeing agricultural production through the allocation of land and resources.
The Aztec Indians were primarily farmers. They practiced agriculture on raised fields called chinampas, which allowed them to grow crops such as maize, beans, and squash. Hunting was also practiced, but agriculture was the primary source of sustenance for the Aztec civilization.
The Aztec called the raised fields they created "chinampas." These were man-made rectangular islands used for agriculture in the shallow lakes of the Valley of Mexico. They were used to grow crops such as maize, beans, and squash.
The Aztec word for headdress is "penacho."
The Aztec civilization was ultimately brought down by Spanish conquistadors led by Hernán Cortés. The Spanish forces, aided by indigenous allies who were opposed to Aztec rule, conquered the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlán in 1521, marking the end of the Aztec Empire.
The center of Aztec culture was in the city of Tenochtitlan, located on an island in Lake Texcoco in the Valley of Mexico. Tenochtitlan was the capital of the Aztec Empire and served as the political, economic, and religious center of the civilization.
