Summary: Timexihca!
Comment: This book should be among the first books to read if anyone is trying to learn the true Anahuaca (Mexican and "Central American") history. Portilla does a good job in mentioning important theological aspects of our people, in that what Europeans interpreted as "Gods" are actually manifestations of one creator.

Summary: Timexihca
Comment: I recommend this book to be read among the first if anyone is trying to learn the true Anahuaca (Mexican and "Central American") history. The most important part in my opinion of this book is the theological aspects which Portilla explains, in which he at one point says that what Europeans interpreted as "Gods" are actually manifestations of one creator, Ometeotl.

Summary: Aztec Thought and Culture
Comment: I first bought this book thirty years ago. I now use it as a text book for my Mexican American Culture and Society Class and for my Pre Hispanic life and Religion Class. This book is basic in understanding the depth of philosophical and religious thought of the ancient Mexican. Portilla is is primarily instruemental in all of his writings in intoducing the reader to the ancient civilizations of this hemisfaire....that was in exsisitance at the same time of the old world....and which we have been so ignorant of for too long.
