What reading level is A Busy Time in Mexico An Unconventional Record of Mexican Incident book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
15. Cuanhtli, the Eagle.
16. Cozcacuahtli, the Vulture.
17. Olin, the Rolling Ball.
18. Tecpatl, the Flint.
19. Cuianitl, the Rain.
20. Xochitl, the Flower.
92 A BUSY TIME IN MEXICO The actual civil year consisted of 365 days, so the 260 calendar overlapped into next year by 105 days, and they were not aware of Leap Year ; the result was that the feasts were always getting badly mixed, and New Year's Day was as mov- able as our Easter. The Aztecs occasionally missed out a bit of time in order t...o catch up and straighten things up r but as they left no record of these calculations all their dates are no use, and cannot be calculated out in ordinary years. But it is assumed that the earliest known monuments at Palenque date from A. D. 700 to A. D. 800.
A few codices, or Aztec books, are still preserved, and some of these have with them translations done into Aztec speech by Spanish monks, but written in Roman characters ; thus we know some- thing of Aztec theology and tradition.
All Aztec writing was picture-writing, and the codices are long books of leather, or agave paper, covered with a wonderful series of coloured con- ventional pictures.
