Aztec culture is built on making sacrifices to the gods. Therefore, the goals of warfare were about capturing the enemies, not killing them.

mixed creation.

This mixed creation was made from both the battle of Chang pin and the trojan war. I took inspiration from the swords of the Chang pin and the spears from the trojan war were fascinating, so I made both together. I made a wall in between the two pictures and then did the trojan war on one side then the Chang pin on the other side with one the spear then two the sword. This represents the Chang pin and the trojan war and they want to fight but they can't because they have a wall also known as the great wall of China. This picture also represents the relationship between the two ancient dynasties.
