Just over 5 centuries ago, the natives in Mexico stopped feeling pride, their children and their children's children never knew that their grandparents had built an impressive civilization...
Today, more than 500 years after the arrival of those men who possessed a strange way of seeing the world, Mexicans begin to discover things that for decades were sorely omitted in textbooks.
Today it is known that the Olmecs discovered the process of vulcanization 3500 years before Charles Goodyear, that Teotihuacan was larger than Imperial Rome, that Texcoco was a cultural capital of the Nahua world, a city similar to Athens for the Greeks, it is known that Tenochtitlan had 700 thousand inhabitants, that is, was 16 times larger than Seville at that time, it is also known that education among the nahuas began from childhood and that was obligatory, public and universal, unlike the Europeans, who only educated children of nobility, we know the today that the Mayans built observatories and that designed the only Venus calendar in antiquity and that in the city of Ek Balam founded the most important painting schools of their culture, it is known that the wixarika and the raramuri learned to connect their heart and his thinking with the earth and his essence thanks to plants and avoiding physical diseases healing the mind first.
There were so many wars to impose religion and its customs or simply conquest of our territory. Here there were already scientific advances but history imposes it and is written by the conqueror, it's time to really know who we were before we were invaded.
We know so much that today it is possible to leave behind that belief that Europeans discovered a continent and that in addition civilized it, because as you could appreciate, civilization here already existed.”— Carmelo Morales...
