Aztecs!


Today is an important transition point in the Aztec (Mexica) ritual calendar.  So  it's AZTECS!  This is meant to be a more than a bit tongue and cheek.  I mean, Aztec mummies...they don't exist!  But, Popoluca, the Aztec mummy from the 1950's movie fame....still oh so much fun.  This is based on the Aztec religious calendar (they have two types of calendars, or Tonalpualli) ; it's more or less the Aztec Friday the 13th.
