Step back in time to Mexico before the Spanish conquest and discover fascinating facts about the peoples who lived there. Explore the culture and beliefs of the Mayas and Aztecs - the cities they built, their astronomical knowledge, and their insatiable need for human sacrifice. Marvel at their mysterious pyramids and beautiful masks, and learn about a ball game that meant certain death for one of its players. A variety of practical projects helps you bring the past alive - create a fan fit for an emperor, make a Mayan backstrap loom and recreate the amazing Aztec sun stone.
