What was a Aztec mountain range?

Answer 1

Aztec Peak is the highpoint of the Sierra Ancha Mountains. This relatively unknown mountain range is located in the Tonto National Forest. Aztec Peak is also located in the Sierra Ancha Wilderness Area. Although the Sierra Ancha Mountains are not very impressive, they do have some precipitous box canyons, towering vertical cliffs, and pine-covered mesas. Elevations range from 4,000' near Cherry Creek to 7,748' atop Aztec Peak. A primitive road leads all the way to the summit of Aztec Peak, where a fire lookout is located. Aztec Peak is really just a rounded hill partially covered with trees, and it's not easily recognizable from a distance. There are many trails, roads, and campgrounds in the Sierra Ancha Mountains. With a prominence of 2,468', Aztec Peak is big enough to make an appearance on the Arizona Prominence Map.

Answer 2

The Aztec Empire was located in central Mexico, where the Sierra Madre mountain range runs. This mountain range includes various peaks and valleys that were significant to the Aztec people both geographically and spiritually. The mountains provided natural barriers for defense and also held religious importance in Aztec mythology.
