Description - National Geographic Investigates: Ancient Aztec: Archaeology Unlocks the Secrets of Mexico's Past by Tim Cooke
The two markets for this book are schools/libraries (ancient civilizations are a key curriculum topic in the middle grades), and people of Mexican and Central American descent (many of this very large minority group are of Aztec origin). What we know of the ancient Aztec civilization is constantly evolving based on new finds and the ways experts interpret them. This book gives kids access to the latest information.
Archaeology reveals the rich history and complex culture of the Aztecs. Journey to the center of this elevated ancient civilization, to a huge oval basin 7,500 feet above sea level, in the Valley of Mexico. Study National Geographic maps and behold the vast range of this intriguing empire. Learn how modern archaeological methods and computer technology have helped to piece together patterns of conquest and colonization. Watch over the shoulders of archaeologists as they unearth clues about the history of the Aztec.
