Student Background Information/Timeline
Was Hernn Corts a hero or a villain?
By the 1400s, the Aztec city of Tenochtitln was one of the largest, wealthiest, and most beautiful cities in the entire world. No one outside of the Americas had ever seen it until 1519 when the Spanish explorer Hernn Corts arrived with 600 men, 16 horses, and a few cannons. He met a young native women named Malinche who would serve as his translator and advisor. Malinche knew the Aztec language and quickly learned to speak Spanish. The leader of the Aztecs, Moctezuma, was not sure what to think when his messengers brought word that the Spanish were on their way. Was their leader, Hernn Corts, a friend? Was he an invading enemy? Or was he the legendary god-king Quetzalcoatl returning to earth to rule the world once again? As you read the following documents that describe the meeting of the Aztec and Spanish, keep in mind this question: Was Hernn Corts a hero or a villain?

- 1440: Aztecs begin to turn on their allies
