How have parts of Aztecs culture continued in Mexico today?
Mexican Culture is a mixture of Mesoamerican (ie, Aztec or Maya) culture that inhabited Mexico before it made contact with the Europeans, and the Spanish culture brought by conquistadors such as Hernan Cortes who conquered and colonized those lands since the 16th century. Some legacies of Aztec culture found in present-day Mexico include the domestication of corn (maize), the cult of death, and the worship of a vast pantheon of gods, such as Coatlicue (earth goddess), but with a caveat: after the conquest, Spanish and Mesoamerican cultures began to merge, so now the worship of the dead has been mixed with the celebration of the Day of the Christian Dead (1 November, 2); the idols were replaced so that Catholicism would use the Virgin Mary as a Westernized version of Coatlicue, and so on. This is known as cultural syncretism.
