Summary
Chocolate, bouncy rubber balls, and the “Three Sisters” agricultural system—the people of ancient Mexico invented them all 3,600 years ago.
They also built the world’s largest pyramid by volume and the sixth most-populated city without the wheel and without pack animals. Ancient Mexico introduced the first city, calendar, writing system, and aqueduct to North America.
This audiobook unwraps the interrelated histories of ancient Mexico’s key civilizations. Learn about their mythology, warfare, art, architecture, and religion. How did they develop writing?
