Since the Spanish destroyed a Mayan library that may have been the

information in that. Moving to the north, however, there is extensive

information on the Aztec royal lines, admittedly an entirely different

culture and language from the Mayans, and there are people alive today

who can trave their ancestry to some of them. Extensive records were

kept by both the Aztecs themselves and by the Spanish, especially when

children who were mixed were born.

Cahokia.
