Ethnically-speaking, the term "Aztecs" refers to various peoples who spoke Nahuati and lived in central Mexico during the fourteenth through sixteenth centuries. The Nahua peoples came from northern Mexico and first started their migration into Mesoamerica in the 1500s. They began as nomadic hunter-gatherers, but then started to mix with the existing civilizations in Mesoamerica and took on certain customs and traditions; this would in turn lay the foundation for Aztec culture.
