Detailed explanation-1: -The Aztecs were very advanced scientific thinkers and mathematicians. The Aztec number system was far more advanced than other cultures at the time. In addition, Aztec science relied heavily on math, such as the design of their calendar.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Aztec was a strong state due to its military power, its religion, and its tribute system. They developed their own calendar of 18 months of 20 days each, built large cities and huge pyramids and temples, and developed a farming system called chinampas that they used to grow crops on shallow lake beds.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Aztecs were famous for their agriculture, land, art, and architecture. They developed writing skills, a calendar system and also built temples and places of worship. They were also known for being fierce and unforgiving.
Detailed explanation-4: -The type of mathematics the Aztecs used to calculate land holdings seems to be consistent with their calendar mathematics, which are more well-known, Williams said. “This fits very nicely with the mathematics we are more familiar with, which is the mathematics of calendrics, ” Williams said.
