Re: Interesting New (to me, anyway) Conflict.

Here is a clip of a cinematic recreation of a battle of Spanish vs. Guanches. Not sure if it is at all historically accurate. A little over 7 minutes and in Spanish, if anyone is interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rQyakiaqZA

Re: Interesting New (to me, anyway) Conflict.

Of course I meant to say "late 1400s" rather than "early 1400s". Not sure what I was thinking.

"Quetzalcoatl, their ancient bearded light skinned God"
Quetzi was bearded and light skinned?

Re: Interesting New (to me, anyway) Conflict.

weell, aztec pictograms are quite inintelligible... however i see your point, after all aztecs (or those who were before them) flourished (maybe) during the fall of the roman empire, when vandals colonized the v-andalusia and north africa and (maybe) the canaries, vandals were the only navigating german tribe, we could imagine them like some sort of vikings, maybe some ships (manned with native guanches slaves) could have lost themselves somewhere in the atlantic ocean and shipwrecked in the coasts of mexico... however it was too late for atlantis, that was already sinked in the ocean, and too early for vikings, because mesoamerican pyramids are more ancient than 9th century... fascinating, even if quite abused theme.
