Find out about a ball game in the time of the Aztecs and tell your classmates about it How ee d the We live in a time of advanced technology, and we often think of ancient civilisations as ‘primitive’. It's easy to forget that they invented many amazing things. One of these civilisations was the Aztec Empire. When the early Aztecs arrived in the Valley of Mexico in around AD 1250, they decided to live on an island in Lake Texcoco. There wasn't much land, so they created Aitifiéial islands and built on these. With time, the capital city Tenochtitlan became larger than Rome. There were pyramids, shops and homes, ali connected with canals and boats. As there were more and more people in the city, the Aztecs needed more food. They couldn't grow vegetables in the water, so they created special ‘floating’ gardens on the water. And because the water in the lake wasn't good for drinking, they built aqueducts to bring fresh water to homes. Farms on water Boys and girls, both rich and poor, went to school in the Aztec Empire. TheAztecs knew that they needed SRMESE workers, so they were the first to start a system of free education. Everyone learnt good behaviour, but clever students could become engineers, scientists, artists or doctors, ‘The Aztecs also created two calendars, one for festivals and the other for counting days. The second calendar had 365 days and 18 months, each with 20 days. There were five extra days that the Aztecs thought were unlucky, and on these days, they usually stayed at home! More than a million people still speak Nahua, the modern Aztec language. People still play a type of drum invented by the Aztecs, and many Mexican recipes use ingredients from Aztec times. The Aztec Empire disappeared hundreds of years ago, but we can see its influence today. Pa Grammar (there) was/were 1 Read the examples and complete the rules.
