Day two of the Spaniards' arrival on the Totonac coast, and trading has begun... of many different commodities.
500 years ago TODAY (Julian Calendar), the decisive conflict of Aztec-Spanish, the Battle of Otumba.
It's won by Spaniards because they made a specific effort to kill the Aztec commander (seen in the images). In the rules of Mesoamerican combat, it essentially ends the battle.
I think it is quite based how Capcom had the coolest Spaniards in video games
@Gonzzink @AztecEmpire1520 The indigenous depictions of the Spaniards' cruelties are horrifying. Colonizers' brutality against indigenous people must not be forgotten.

"Ang Tagasundo"
Known as "Maria Cacao", her original name is lost & unrecorded, the Spaniards named her. Like Makiling and Sinukuan, her mythology was already developed before the arrival of the Spaniards. She guards Mt. Lantoy in Argao, Cebu. #philippinemythology #artph

Teuhtlil, a Mexica governor, meets with the newly arrived Spaniards. Cortes describes himself as a vassal of an emperor that rules over most of the world, whom many kings obey. Teuhtlil is skeptical... Read new pages at https://t.co/mPZsGIYKCS

TODAY, 501 years ago: The Maya give 20 slave girls to the Spaniards as a tribute. Before Cortes passes them out to his favorite captains, they are baptized.
501 years ago TODAY: The Battle of Cintla.
A combined Maya force of over 20,000 warriors confront 400 Spaniards. But the Spaniards have steel swords and armor, firearms, cannons...and horses.
MARCH 23, five hundred and one years ago:
Several hundred Spaniards invade the Tabasco town of Potonchan. The residents are surprised by a two-pronged attack from opposite sides of the town.
The dance of the Coyongos.
An almost lost dance of the #carnavaldebarranquilla that is an allegory of the conquer of the spaniards over america.
The gun is the spaniards, the coyongos the indiegenous people and the fish is the land.

Tabasco Maya told Spaniards to look for gold in the land of the Mexica. The Maya did want to get rid of the Spaniards, but in this instance they didn't use deception. https://t.co/rUFDByY9uv

Several people have asked if we'll ever get to see the spaniards in #CodexBlack, and the answer is NO.
The story begins in 1493, when #Donaji is 14 y/o.
In 1519, when Cortés arrives to the coasts of Mexico, Donaji would be 40!
Here's Donaji through the years:
“What are you doing, Haskins?”
“Just having a look.”
“Well done, in our line of work it pays to be #inquisitive.”
“In Quisitive? Where’s that?”
“No idea, but I hear it’s popular with Spaniards”
“That’s a surprise, sir.”
“Nobody expects the Spanish in Quisitive.”

I visualized the CERA dataset from @es_INE that lists Spaniards that are living abroad :) I consider it a personal dataset because I'm part of it
