Back in the Aztec times (around 1500's and 1600's) priest's were like gods they were very important. One day one of the Aztec priest's had a vision of an eagle eating a serpent while sitting on a cactus. And one day someone saw a eagle eating a serpent on a cactus and that where they stayed!!
The ancestors of the Aztecs came across the Bering Strait and eventually traveled south to what is now Mexico. In about 1250 AD, they arrived in the Valley of Mexico. In about 1325 AD, they left and built a city they called Tenochtitlan, which is now known as Mexico City.
The Aztecs were people that belonged to certain kinds of ethnic groups. The Aztecs came from central Mexico. Around the 13th century, the Valley of Mexico was where most of the Aztec civilization lived.
The enchiladas were invented in Mexico. They can be dated back to the time of the Mayans in the lake region of the Valley of Mexico.
Incorrectly attributed to the Aztecs, the ancient city and ruins of Teotihuacan lie some 48 kilometers (30 miles) northeast of Mexico City, capital of the country of Mexico. It was founded almost 800 years before the Aztecs arrived to the Texcoco valley in 1325 AD.
The Aztecs established in the Valley of Mexico, near Lake Texcoco. They built their first temples in Tenochtitlan which was in the middle of lake Texcoco which is now modern day Mexico City. They were a warrior based culture, and continued to conquer and expand. At one point their empire spread throughout most of of Mexico. It is believed that they may have even gone as far north as what is now known as the southwestern United States.
