Introducing a Conquistador's worst nightmare. . . The Aztecs
Among Latin American Warfare, no society stands out more in reputation and ability as the Aztecs. The Aztec society was innately linked to war, it was their way of life. They produced the most feared warriors during this time, and engaged in warfare with other civilizations, often dominating the region. Pictured above, a Spaniard come face to face with an elite Aztec Eagle Warrior. Even with their superior weapon technology, the Spanish found a formidable enemy in the Aztecs. From a society that raised warriors from the age of 10 on, the culture and society of the Aztecs was one of war and combat.
