They would take prisoners of war, children, slaves, and woman to sacrifice. The Aztec had 2 main calendars. One for religion that was 260 days long. The second one had 365 days with 18 months with 20 days each then 5 extra days. They had a celebration every 52 years to celebrate called the "New Fire Ceremony." Persit would light the chest of a sacrifice on fire. ]]> 2019-04-22 13:01:14 UTC https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353035028 wozniem1_1 https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353037892 Sometimes the Aztec went on to war only because they needed slaves to sacrifice. After a sacrifice was made it was believed that the person went to be god's helper. ]]> 2019-04-22 13:10:41 UTC https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353037892 wozniem1_1 https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353038474 The Aztec were located in the middle of the lake so there was not much room for farming. So they got creative and made these floating gardens called Chinampas. Chinampas are piled with mud and dirt to make a "floating garden." There was a couple times were the crops started to fail. Everybody was hungry and people would sell themselves into slavery just so they could get some food. Somethings they grew were beans, peanuts, avocado, peppers, sweet potatoes, and corn. ]]> 2019-04-22 13:12:46 UTC https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353038474 wozniem1_1 https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353041322 The main tool the Aztec used was a stick for digging holes. The Aztecs planted willow trees around the chinampas so everything would stay in place. ]]> 2019-04-22 13:23:43 UTC https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353041322 wozniem1_1 https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353042335 There were many Aztec cities each one had different laws and rules to follow. Some crimes among the cities would be stealing crops, public drunkenness, and murderer. A punishment for one of these could be getting your house destroyed, saving your head, and sacrifice. Since there was no prisons or jails they would most likely kill you. Small crimes would be taken care of in a basic local court but bigger crimes would go to the temples. ]]> 2019-04-22 13:27:13 UTC https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353042335 wozniem1_1 https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353045290 If a child was really bad a parent could bring them to court. ]]> 2019-04-22 13:37:17 UTC https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353045290 wozniem1_1 https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353045905 Lots/most of the Aztec games would end in sacrifice. Ullamaliztli was one of the main games, the court would be one of the first things built in new cities because it was very important. Children would play with bow and arrows. They would also climb poles to see how fast they could make it to the top and the fastest got a prize. Another game would be Patolli, which is a bored game of some sort. Beans are thrown like dice on the mat that is shaped like a cross. In this game they would bet metals, stones, and plants. People would walk around with there patolli mats waiting to be challenged.]]> 2019-04-22 13:39:22 UTC https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353045905 wozniem1_1 https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353190599 2019-04-22 21:59:37 UTC https://padlet.com/wozniem1_1/gswxyo5hl0g6/wish/353190599
