Yep, not much different from Roman or Egyptian armies.

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

they raided and burned villages and cities, as well as the "Aztec books", known as the Aztec Codex. Only a few documents of these worthfull books about Aztec Culture survived the European invasion.

I must correct myself here:
The "codex"-books were from the "Maya" (these had a similar culture, but lived more to the south), not from the "Aztec"! I had been reading and watching documentaries about both Maya and Aztec and got the Codex-part mixed up...

With the remains of these "Codex" books the Maya-language and -writing is finally being translated.
