This was a well put video. One major critique I have is the lack of captions. But still phenomenal work.

A prickly pear is a fruit that actually taste kinda good. What a great quote. I’m glad I stayed for the whole video.

Tenochtitlan was larger than the largest city in Europe (Paris)

[missourimongoose]

Just to make this weirder the sleeping prophet edgar casey who predicted all kinda stuff was asked who inhabited atlantis and his reply was the red people meaning native americans

I re-discovered Aztlan and the real location of Tenochtitlan.

They left Aztlan for a few reasons. 1 they were island. Crowd a bedroom and it gets hard to sleep, move. They also realized that some animals, bugs etc, were leaving. They saw that and decided to move becuase if they stayed, they would end up doing damage to their enviroment.

2 they also left their city sometime after they finished building their nation. 7 cities. Main capital in the middle and the 6 around it kind of like the solar system. Sun governs our space. Capital, government governs their nation.

3 they also left becuase if they stayed, their egos, laziness, perversion, etc; would grow. In order to prevent this, they simply LEFT. They abandoned it. They walked and sailed away from their home becuase their WILLPOWER(huiztilopochtli) told them so. From aztlan they were aztecs. Along the way however, they are now mexica. Me-she-kah. For 260 years they walked and passed down their culture, knowledge and long before they knew where to build their city, Tenochtitlan, they know exactly how they were going to build it.

9:45 Small correction. English is not a romance (latin) language. It is a germanic language with over 60% latin words. It does belong to the Indo-European language family along with the romance languages though. Proto-Indo-European was likely spoken at the same time that Proto-Uto-Aztecan was.

If I may...

When they speak of the CAVE you're suppose to think of Hypogeums, such as the ones found in Malta and Turkey.
The connection being the Pheonicians.

The cave mentioned is spoken about by the HOPI, formerly the Anasazi, who hold genetic ties to the BON people of Tibet, via the Tartesso colonies.
Cultural crossover from the Alexander the Great era.

The CONFLUENCE.
Which was discovered by Kincaid in 1908, in the Grand Canyon, but later covered up by the Smithonsian and Freemasons.

The ancient connections to the Monkey King So Wukong are apparent, as well as Shiva, with the Hindu-Tibetan/Bon-Egyptian crossover themes reported.

The Cave is the Confluence, south of the Ice Wall from the Younger Dryas.

The Spanish burned all the books if the aztecs prior to writing a few codices there after, let that sink in

[SeaforgedArtifacts]

Aztlan = Aztlantis?

These people sure had a propensity for building cities in the middle of bodies of water

[rickecheverria]

Try and pronounce Mexica like this " May - She- Ka ---

[Cuauhtemoc]

Do a video on the Olmecs. Curious u Mexican American?

[PlanetOfTheAztecs]

The Spanish also burned all the books of the aztecs prior to writing a few codices there after, let that sink in

[inferno]

Thank you for your video. I personally have little good feeling about that Aztlan term because of the political movement named after it.

[Bryan-bdkc]

U pronounced Nahuatl wrong its "nawua"

[AgapeMinistries]

It’s near deepest hot spring in world look it up Montezumas head in pagosa springs Colorado

[juanantoniorabelero]

The Aztecs made the codices and not the Spanish.

Oh my God, they asked for the chiefs daughter for marriage, and then sacrificed her. Then they wore her skin😅
