We often assume ancient civilizations lacked writing because they didn't use ink and paper, but the Mexica had a sophisticated system of pictographic and ideographic signs called tlamatltoani. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how Aztec scribes recorded history, tribute lists, and genealogies using glyphs on bark paper and deer hides. We examine the famous Codex Mendoza, created shortly after the Spanish conquest to explain the empire's structure to King Charles V, and discuss how these visual records served as memory aids rather than phonetic texts. You will learn about the role of the calmecac schools where young nobles trained as tlacuilo, or painters-writers, and discover why European observers mistakenly claimed the Aztecs were illiterate. By understanding the nuance of their script, we see that Tenochtitlan was not just a city of stone and sacrifice, but a society deeply invested in preserving its own narrative through visual language. #AztecWriting #Tlacuilo #CodexMendoza #NahuatlScript #Pictographs #TenochtitlanHistory #MesoamericanCulture #ColonialMexico #IndigenousKnowledge #SpanishConquest #BarkPaper #Calmecac #Glyphs #PreColumbianArt #MexicaEmpire #VisualLiteracy #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
