Chaco Canyon's Buildings In Therfore

The buildings found in this area range from historical buildings built in the 1900’s to newer homes and commercial buildings. Houses are generally older with some newer homes scattered throughout the area. The quality of the homes range from dilapidated to immaculate. Many of the older homes in Old Yuma did not appear to have air conditioning as doors and windows were left open to circulate air, versus the new homes, which contained AC units either on top of the roof or on the ground. All homes appeared to have plumbing and electricity. Homes were generally in close proximity to one another and appeared to have seemingly small lots. There were several abandoned or boarded up homes in the area. Older motels and single story apartments were visualized in the area. Closed down and boarded up motels, hotels, and homes were scattered throughout the area. A homeless shelter was located in a isolated area next to the railroads and county line.

Because Schreffler is arguing that Díaz, López de Gómara, Solís and González created a misconstrued view of Aztec painting, imagery is a vital component of this essay.

También la lluvia is a tragic tale of the water wars in Cochbamba from the view point of a movie crew trying to make a movie about the Spanish conquistadors who came to conquer the native people. During the movie we are flashed between two points of view the conquistadors conquering and the water wars. During this reflection paper I hope to make a connection between these two points of views and show how they both related to each other. The conquistadors and the water company/government both do three things first they came for a resource, second they force the natives to follow their policies, and lastly if they don’t do as they are told they use violence to suppress them.

For many years The Aztec Empire was able to rule all of Mexico by killing and destroying everything on their path. This group of people, who was known to be the “The Mexica”, was hardly able to survive by eating snakes and other small mammals. However, the Aztecs overcame those troubles and became a successful tribe, in which their ultimate goal was to be the most dominant. This tribe was considered to be more advance and successful than other people do to the brilliant way they build their cities, temple and pyramids. In addition, it was believed that they had great communication skills and strong religious beliefs. Although, the Aztec had many skills and where considered to be bright human beings, it was still not enough to defeat the Spanish conquistadors who had arrived in Mexico. Finally, this powerful tribe had conquer and remain in power for so many years, which leads to the question what went wrong. In this essay it will explain the Aztec’s history as well as the mistakes that leaded to their mistakes.

Which now makes it a source of revenue and a place where members of the community can come together for a meal.

Finally, I can conclude that having a history written by someone else, especially by ones conquerors is difficult. Now only many elements will be left aside, but much truth will not be told. In this paper, I tried to explain this theory may not always apply to history. Although the Spanish were conquering, killing, stealing and raping, there were good people with clear purposes. The purpose of bring forward the facts of what happened in the dark era of today’s Latin America. While Diaz describe almost everything he saw and heard from the natives while in the city of Tenochtitlan, while Leon judges many of the actions of the Spanish and explains the spirituality of the Incas and while Casas portrays the pure and genuine character of the native
