The Mexican Revolution
[ send me this paper ]
A 16 page research paper that gives an overview of this turbulent period in Mexican history. The writer argues that the leaders of the Mexican Revolution were just as courageous, just as idealistic and just as patriotic as the leaders of the American Revolution. Like the early U.S. leaders, they also were not in total agreement as to their vision of how their country's future should be accomplished; however, the Mexican leaders lacked the administrative skills and experience that enabled their U.S. counterparts to compromise and form an effective government. Consequently, the history of revolution in Mexico was much more turbulent than that of the U.S. and was marked by successive revolts. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

The “Sun Stone” or Aztec Calendar -- Meanings, Iconography,
Purposes:
[ send me this paper ]
This 11 page report discusses the ancient civilization
of the Aztecs and their remarkable “Sun Stone” or calendar. In
the Aztec system there are actually two Aztec calendars that are
essentially independent of one another. However, both are on the
“Sun Stone.” They reflect two different aspects of time which
represent the two most important aspects of Aztec life --
agriculture and spirituality. One of the calendars marks 365
days and is called the xiuhpohualli. It describes the days and
rituals that are connected with the different seasons, and is
generally thought of as the agricultural or solar year calendar.
The other calendar consists of only 260 days. In the language of
the Aztecs (Nahuatl), it is called the tonalpohualli simply
meaning the “day-count.” Bibliography lists 8 sources.
