Витоки ацтекської космологічної панорами всесвіту

Abstract

In this article the author pays his attention to the problem of the formation of the aztecs cosmological panorama of the Universe. The problem touches the evolution of the earliest cosmological ideas in the archaic ерос (from the end of the III - until the end of 1 mill B.C.).The author emphasizes upon the idea of the important role of the olmecs civilization in the formation of the cosmological picture of the aztecs Universe and the unique contribution of the toltecs civilization whose experience became the main source for the aztecs in the development of their culture. Just like Barbarians in Europe, who only absorbed the unique achievements of Rome, the bloodthirsty aztecs did the same in Mexico.
