Today's Aztecs live in Mexico .... as
Mexicans. The people of Mexico, just like the people of most other countries in the
world, are descendents of their history. People mix, people marry, peoples change
over the years. It's nearly 500 years since Cortes overthrew Tenochtitlan but you can
still find Aztecs in every walk of life ... doing the same kind of thing ... but not the
sacrifice bit!! In 1982 an estimated 1,000,000 people were of Aztec descent. |

At the festival |
And smiling ...... |
