The work is based on the study of written sources of the sixteenth century, the pictographic manuscripts of pre-Hispanic times and their copies of the first colonial era, as well as archaeological data. In this way a comprehensive overview of the buildings and open spaces used during the monthly rites is presented. Each chapter is devoted to the study of a month and its ceremonies and is divided in two parts. As the first part describes the sacred spaces, the second one examines the ceremonial paths, its participants and the moments of realization. This investigation is enriched by the study of their localization in the sacred geography of the city. The conclusions obtained help to understand some of the new aspects of Aztec religious life: the symbolic significance of places of worship, the geographical distribution of the centers of supernatural power in the urban space and their usage. In this way, these data reflect the worldview of the ancient Nahuas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elena Mazzetto\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e British Archaeological Reports Oxford Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/12\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 423\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.69h x 8.27w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781407313030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e French\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMazzetto, Elena:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Elena Mazzetto\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"British Archaeological Reports Oxford Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45186217017459,"sku":"9781407313030","price":180.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_e3fe2602-1f32-401f-a0f8-c0bfe13d091d.jpg?v=1783424157","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/lieux-de-culte-et-parcours-ceremoniels-dans-les-fetes-des-vingtaines-a-mexico-tenochtitlan-9781407313030","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
