In the ancient history of Latin America, myths and legends abound of the visitation of Quetzalcoatl, often referred to as The Bearded White God. The Bearded White God of Ancient America relives and explains Cortez’ stunning conquest of the vast Aztec empire in the context of the Quetzalcoatl myths and legends. This book gives you a great source for the ancient Latin American Quetzalcoatl myths and legends—from the rare remaining writings of the great Aztec and Incan empires to the writings of the early Spanish colonial priests, soldiers, and colonists who had access to those original native writings not destroyed in the conquest.
