MJ+C&C+Cortes+and+Aztec+Accounts

The two accounts tell very different stories. Cortez’s account was that he was seen as a god and that the entire city loved and trusted him infinitely. According to the Aztec account, the people believed that their king, Monteczuma, was giving away everything on someone that came from the East. The Cortes account fails to mention the fact that he attacked the Aztecs in the middle of a celebration and started rolling heads across the patio. These are very different and biased accounts but I find that in most cases, the victim’s story is more reliable.
