Another weird pic that I stumbled upon while researching Aztecs.

      Yep, it’s the only thing left I’m passionate about. I’m a history nerd from Texas and I got a chip on my shoulder that Mexican history doesn’t attract history nerds.

        I frequently wish that the movie Apocalypto had inspired a whole genre of movies. Kind of like Westerns, but taking place in pre-Columbian times. That’s the sort of thing that creates new history nerds in a genre. Do you happen to know if Mexico has produced many/any good movies that take place in pre-Columbian times?

        A shame, because the pre-columbian cultures of that region are so fucking cool, and the colonized history isn’t boring either! Wish i knew more about it.
