LIES! LIES! LIES!...Early Europeans, the Celts were cannibals eating each others, also Africans, Americans of south or north were also cannibals, but the worst of those cannibals were the Aztecs of Tenochtitlan, Mexico. They butcher half of a million people EVERY YEARS! Their trunquated piramids were used to butchered half a million victims and their members were slipped own their bloody steep steps to the bottom to be caught by the people to take them home to cook them with salt, tomato, onion and chili inside their homes! NOTICE HOW TODAY THE MEXICANS ARE HIDING THEIR ATROCITIES!...They even try to blame the cannibalism on the Spaniards!🤮🤮🤮🤮
@Andromeda Prima Unfortunately, actual Nahuas/Mexicans don’t speak Jojo Bizarre Adventures. They speak Masami Kurumada’s Knight of the Zodiac-Saint Seiya considering Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca made appearances to help or fight the servants of the Greek Gods.
I think floods at the time would’ve been conceived as one of the worst possible scenarios, since they would have relied on land a lot back then (not that we don’t now).
I agree, I always thought the flood stories came from when all the glaciers melted after the Ice Age, and the stories of the floods survived and got molded in religion and myth.
The Bible says the angels who left their first estate married human girls and bore sons called nephilim. Evil was continually in everyone’s heart and that’s when God decided to flood the earth. Many people try to write the Bible off as crazy old ramblings but there’s truth to it.
@@thegreatiam8600 Sorry dude but the bible really is only crazy old ramblings. None of it has any basis to scientific truth and the most realistic thing is that people got intensily high and thought that God was sending them visions

So interesting how there are 5 suns or ages in this mythology. Reminds me of the Ancient Greek 5 Ages. The Golden age, Silver age, Bronze Age, age of heros and the Iron age. Which is apparently the age we live today.
@@andradeharo9796 You dont have a proper understanding on how the ancient Greeks and the original meaning of paedophilia was. Although I do disagree completely with the sexualisation of children in any era and what modern pedophilia is. But maybe in forgotten history, humanity truly has gone through 5 cycles ended by natural disaster and rebuilt. The only memory surviving from these myths. It's very intriguing.
OSP is great for a basic overview because that is their goal. To make short and informative videos while having some fun so they don't always go into a ton of detail and brush over some things. They did mention Quetxalcoatil fighting his brothers they just simplified it. I like coming here after watching their videos to see if I can find more details for the ones that interest me
Im Mexican born and when they thought us about our ancestors they never mention the creation because (I think) they were conquered by a very Catholic people that mostly got rid of a lot of writings and stuff that had lots of info like our origins, regardless of it, or if it sounds like fairytales, it’s very interesting subject, glad I know the story know thanks!
There should be a movie about this. Not about the documentary but a hypothetical reality of these gods. I wanna see these gods get mad and do stuff and of course showing the Aztec art with it.
I want this for a lot of these cultures. Next on my list would be a movie about any of the african myths but currently what I want the most is something about Sumerian mythology. The epic of gilgamesh might be a trippy movie
@@Trollamollex Good depictions of pre-Columbian civilizations have another layer of significance for indigenous americans and latines because our history is so colonized that mainstream stuff usually ignores indigenous history.
Another version I know is that Cipactli wasn't just a random fish that was made into the ground and mountains for the world. It was supposed to be a ginormous reptile with several mouths, who ruled the earth which was entirely flooded. Then Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca joined forces to defeat him and create a new world. Tezcatlipoca sacrificed his own foot to attract Cipactli into a trap, and slayed by Quetzalcoatl. Cipactli would be torned apart to create the world from its body, and the myth says that if Cipactli's body reforms again from its pieces, it would mean the end of the world
This is awesome! I’ve studied Hinduism and Buddhism and find them interesting but I’ll never be able to remember the names of the Aztec gods! Shiva and Ganesh is a lot easier than Tonacatecuhtli and Tonacacihuatl 😨😅
Nanahuatzin is comparable to Shiva who lived a loner life of acsecticism maybe that of his son Kartikeya who's represented with the numbers 666 of his birth respectively not including references of the Bible.

The Mexicah people or the Aztecs as the world better knows them took their religion from the Toltecs just like the Romans took theirs from the Greeks. The Toltec civilization is much older than the Mexicah civilization, the Mexicah just adopted and adapted the Toltec Gods and mythology to their religion. By the way, Mexico and the world should start giving more credit to the other Mesoamerican civilizations, ancient Mexico was much more than Aztecs and Mayans. Now, if you look at the Sumerian version (and some others too) of the creation you will notice immediately the remarkable similarities they share, this is when you start asking yourself: what the hell has been going on here?, Are these just strange coincidences? or maybe someone has been playing games with our minds for a long time. According to this mythology there's one more age the humanity has to go through: The Sixth Sun, where everything will be renewed again, that meaning everything must be destroyed and created again. I like your video, it's educational, dynamic, easy to understand and fun, greetings from Mexico.
From the story I red, the age of the third sun ended because Tezcatlipoca raped and took away Tlaloc's first wife; sad Tlaloc has sunken himself into grieve, and he stopped doing his job as the god of the rain. After a long time without raining, the lands became dry and water are gone from earth. Humans gathered together, begging Tlaloc for rain fall day by day. Tlaloc, still in grieve, was annoyed by their voices, thus he gave the people a rain of fire, which destroyed the world.
Its the same. If you turn angels into different gods and you put tgem into battles you get the battles between fallen angels and good ones. And they say there were different kinds of fallen angels, those that tried usurping God and those that forgot their duties and came and mingled with human woman. And there are many similarities between different cultures. The flood was real. And after it people spread all over the world. And în time they forgot and changed parts of their stories. But I think that tgere is a truth behind all stories. We were created abd were supposed to behave în a certain way. And for sure human sacrifices were not what we were supposed to do.
@@miyaiun4723 Global Flood wasn't fucking real..... If global flood was real the flood should exceeded Mount Everest aka 9000m Water Flood...... There was no great world flood. Christians just were very bad at writing LOCAL FLOODS. So i was created to worship this Abrahamic god, And thats my purpose of existence???? Christianity is literally a CTRL+C, CTRL+V and re-adding from other Mythologies
THE AZTEC LEGEND OF THE FIRST HUMANS OF THE FIFTH SUN During the fifth Sun, under the worship of Quetzalcoatl, the gods met and decided to establish a new human species that would settle the earth. Quetzalcoatl went to Mictlantecuhtli, this was the lord of the underworld and lord of the shadows. Mictlantecuhtli exercised its sovereignty over the Mictlan, the nine underground rivers. Quetzalcoatl told Mictlantecuhtli that he was coming for the bones that were in his custody. He did not want to give them to him because he asked him to pass a test. He had to sound the snail that was offered and turn it four times around the inner circle. But the snail had no hole where Quatzalcoatl could go spinning around. Then he called the worms to make the holes and the bees to come in and blow the snail. When he heard it, Mictlantecuhtli had no choice but to give him the bones. He immediately regretted that the bones belonged to the past generations and his place was there, in Mictlán. Mictlantecuhtli sent some quail in pursuit and got Quetzalcoatl to lose the bones, Quetzalcoatl did not give in and as he walked to where those bones were he sent his double and made them believe that he was coming back to life. The bones of a woman and the bones of man were separate, it was only a question of tying them up and taking them away. Quetzalcoatl already ascended from Mictlán and Mictlantecuhtli thought that he still had time to recover the precious objects and ordered his servants to dig a hole. Rushing forward, they overtook Quetzalcoatl, who fell dead in its depths. As it fell, it released the bones, which quickly spread all over the surface. But Quetzalcoatl resuscitated and picked up the remains again. Outside was the maid Quilaztli, who ground the bones and placed them in a vessel of singular beauty, while Queatzalcoatl rested from his mission. Then the gods gathered and Quetzalcoatl poured his blood on the dust of the bones. All did penance and, finally, decreed the birth of the humans of the Fifth Sun.
Also in the process Quetzalcoatl lost a few bones quarreling with mictlantecuhtli which is why we aren’t giants anymore and why we got shorter as humans

Being American and Hispanic has its benefits… Thank you God and Goddesses… I was born in America and I would gladly honor my ancestors in the face of battle…paint my face, skin a Jaguar, and cleanse it with its holy water. Die with Honor just like my ancestors did in tribal wars. American Military needs some Mexica warriors if we are going to war in the jungles.
I came across this video when searching Aztec mythology game hoping I'd find a video game that does some justice to the stories of prehispanic civilizations because I would love to see a video game with all the gods and creatures, real and mythical environments and art and concepts based on these cultures. I'd love a dark souls type of game where you fight these gods at the top of pyramids or go travel through the mictlan as you're supposed to when you die.
The way this ties into Greek mythology, Egyptian, Viking, and a lot of ancient mythology, along with uncensored Christianity, it’s mind blowing... who ever has confiscated this knowledge and withholds it, holds truth from humanity, and runs the world...
Yeah. And a lot more specifically the same stories. Even in the great flood of noah the sky "falls" we jews called it the firmament Before that rain wasnt needed. It was like a super oxygen based wet placenta around earth. While it sounds dumb at face value. Upon learning that this would be necessary for giants and dinosaurs to survive less they collapse in on themselves it gains credence. Then shortly after chunks of those gods were divided among the earth to help bring stability. Which with according to the bible would be around the time God took the sons of God aka small g gods and assigned them different locations to help humans after the tower of babel incident. Its also in sync with northern American native lore
Creation story is very intriguing. The destruction of worlds has many parallels globally, and a few line up with current theories. One sounds like coronal mass ejection, another an extraterrestrial impact, possibly another type of plasma event "squatter man". There's also a theory where Saturn was our primary sun in conjunction with current. Very interesting. Thanks
Hi. If you put different myths together, you get informations that show humans knew about the creation of everything that happened before they even existed. And if you take în consideration how they were wiped out a few times, it gets interesting. How could they have known about destructions that now were already covered up because time has gone by since they happebed? Someone mustve told them. Who? I do think we really were created and we were supposed to behave în a certain way. We just got so displaced and lost parts of what we were supposed to know and obey. I think that one good way of knowing how to behave is putting yourself în others peoples shoes. If you see that we all suffer, all beings suffer, then trying not to add more suffering seems tge right way of acting.
This sounds like a general back story to the eastern religions. You got the river Gods - hindu The twin sons thrown in the fire- egyptian The brothers who turned into a tree- nortic The 5th son that made the morning star fall and made all other Gods sacrifice themselves- christianity
Their is no sacrifices in my culture, never has been. In our language nauhua, we don't even have a word for sacrifice. This was made up by Cortez to evade penalty by death, from the queen to justify the mass murder of a simple gold heist gone terrible wrong!
1:40 It’d be interesting to figure out how “half a sun” came to be. If stories were passed down from their ancestors about land bridges that eventually “sunk” ~ though it’s probably more likely to be related to a solar eclipse ~ or just the moon.
@@ramongraciano5669 wow this makes me really wonder if in the ancient time the sun was young and actually smaller than it is today because it has been swelling as a maturing star.
Has anybody notice about how this creation myth is basically behind the idea of Darwin's evolution theory? In each world the gods create in their ins and out of power, a great catastrophe is sent upon the earth, which makes the current inhabitants do one of two things: die or survive. And in each catastrophe, the survivors evolve to a form that can withstand whatever came before, for example: when the world got flooded, and most people drawn, the survivors became the fish; after there was a big storm, and heavy winds blew the people away, then birds came into being. It's at its core natural selection distilled. It's actually rather beautiful and well thought
Creation myths from other cutures would be fairly different than that of say those of the Middle East which is where the Abhramic Relgion comes from. Death, adaptation, evolution, and change are likely the realities of those cultures especially in a environment where such realities would be a constant things.
Pretty different story from what I heard. Huitzilopochtli killed his 400 brothers who became the stars and killed Coyolxauhqui and threw her head into the sky and it became the moon. He was born on the day that he killed his siblings. He was born as an adult, fully armored and his mother created the legendary weapon with which he cut and dismembered his siblings.
He does mentioned that there’s several creation myths in the Nahua culture, so some people might’ve heard different stories. The myth you’re thinking of is also quite popular, but very different to the one in the video. The Spanish destroyed nearly all of the Aztec scriptures, so we have no way of knowing what was canon. When it comes to the version you’re mentioning though it’s important to make a note of the difference between the Aztecs and the Mexica. The Mexica were a group of Aztecs who lived in tenochtitlan and their primary god was Huitzilopochtli. But not all Aztecs were Mexica and they didn’t all worship Huitzi as their primary god. Despite having the same genetic makeup and origins as the Mexica, the main god of most other groups was Quetzalcoatl. I believe the creation myth of Huitzilopchtli you’re referring to might’ve been the version created by the Mexica for the sake of their god and to elevate his importance, but most other Nahuatl peoples didn’t really care about Huitzi and likely followed some deviation of the stories in this video.
The Myth of the Suns is probably heavily influenced by older civilizations in Central Mexico. The creation story of Huitzilopochtli is probably a specific creation story to the Mexika.
QUETZALCOATL The main mythological god of Mexico 🇲🇽 is Quetzalcoatl. Just as the Greeks have Zeus, the Nordics to Odin, the Egyptians to Amon-Ra. We Mexicans 🇲🇽 have Quetzalcoatl. According to Aztec mythology is the creator god, creator of man, god of life, light, wisdom, fertility and knowledge, pattern of the day and the winds, the ruler of the West.
Ancient Mexico wasn't a unified or a single country back then, it was formed of many nations and every nation worshiped one god more than others, for the Mexicah the main god was Huitzilopochtli.
Huitzilopochtli is the most powerful god though, they had built him a place in Templo Mayor along with Tlaloc. Huitzilopochtli is god of the sun, war, human sacrifice, gold, and rulership and the patron god of the Aztecs, by mere seconds of being born he had killed his sister the moon and his siblings the 400 stars. He is the supreme god of the Aztecs.
Ive always loved this creation story. The way it highlights their sacrifice and hard work also their mistakes. They're not the perfect being we're used to these days. Rather they are an example to humanity of how to work together and to never settle for less to b humble and to sacrifice ourselves for those we love.
@Johnny Michoacan I doubt pedophilia was a European creation many cultures practiced it like in the Middle East, Asia, Africa and Americas. Much like racism it was a universal creation with no real starting point.
@@solisprime2669 pedophilia comes since the beginning of humanity. Since the roman empire found these evil religions in the different reigns they conquered. Even longer back in time the Phoenicians used to worship gods that demanded the sacrifice of children, including pedophilia practices. Pedophilia as a human problem(crime) exists anywhere, but as an(hidden)accepted general practice, took part far away from the new world.
@@solisprime2669ohhh yeah. Can’t forget the sacrifice. Look how far we’ve plummeted as a society due to our remission of the sanctity of sacrifice not just for our own selfish benefit
No different from the Viking view on creation in a way. And the Maasi of Africa mix the blood of their cattle with milk because water in Africa is full of parasites more often than not. Right or wrong these stories are what we are used to and our way of making sense of things we have yet to investigate. Thunder blew our minds for a long time. There is more to such energies. Lightening might be mechanical, but there are more subtle energies that we don't notice.

Actually we have a lot in common with the vikings, specially with all the sacrifice thing
Aztecs predicted even eclipses! they were mathematicians hard core, Art was extremely important and poetry was the highest form. They had poetry festivals. Good art was beautiful because when human beings achieve great art they saw it as having been connected to Teotl (Main God) because godly things are mathematically harmonious, good art was achieve by artist who were authentic and pure bad art was made by fools.
0:16 That is _NOT_ Tonacacihuatl, that is very clearly an image of Tezcalipoca taken from the Codex Borgia. Less than 30 seconds in, and you guys have already fucked up royal.
Very interesting. I was familiar with Huitzilopochtli as the sun god but did not know until watching this video there were other Aztec sun gods with different names or that there were several different creation stories. Makes me wonder if the Aztecs absorbed or added the mythos of the tribes they conquered into their religion, which may explain why so many different versions of the creation story.
my dad always had a saying "conejo de la luna" which translates to rabbit in the moon. I never understood why he would say that til now. I know now that it comes from an old aztec story about the moon.
Negative. It’s old school Mexica propaganda from when King Itzcoatl ordered the burning of every piece of history they had because it was “ heresy “ now where have we heard that before lol
I love mythology because it seems there's always a bit of truth hidden in it. I wonder if this myth is trying to explain the shifting of our magnetic poles 42,000 years ago.
I like the idea here, but this is full of mispronunciations, oversimplifications, and errors. :( For example, at the start of the video your graphic of Tonacacihuatl is actually Tezcatlipoca. Always excited to see people getting into mesoamerican history and religion, I hope that this video can serve as a gateway for people to find higher quality information elsewhere.
FML. Glad this BS isn't around today. Today's religions are not much better. Still based on utter bollocks peppered with events that actually happened. Each to their own, but i will stick to the things that can be proven!
Funny that trees produce 20% of our atmosphere (oxygen) and in a way literally hold up our atmosphere. There is truth in mythology. It's not myth. Just a different description of the world as we know it today.
Trees produce less than ⅓ of the oxygen in our atmosphere. Most (just under ¾) atmospheric oxygen is produced by marine plants. So...no, trees do not hold up our atmosphere.
I challenge you to create folklore and myths for Antarctica. Just imagine what they would be like if there had been human civilizations on that continent.
This all sounds like one big minecraft modded server where friends kept griefing and trolling each other as they kept fighting over what the server should look like.
Is so similar to babilonia ancient sumaria storys of the anunaki blood line and can see a resemblance in Mesopotamia And mezzoamerica even in the architect of the citys they build and astronomy of where they came from with civilización and calender
Somehow the plumed serpent archetype was a common motif in various cultures all around the ancient world. I wonder if the other gods were recognized in those other cultures too.
Many ancient cultures had rough estimates don't forget the Greeks I think discovered the world was round due to shadows in wells. We think ourselves in modern times wiser but some dark ages caused knowledge to be forgotten only to be later rediscovered.
Astrology mate. Simply count the amount of day/night cycles you go through until the stars line up to their starting position. Something an individual could accomplish, never mind a society.
They looked up to the sky. Counted how many days the sun rose and set, observed the constellations and their positions in the sky at certain periods, etc. The natives of Mexico and Central America were heavily educated when it came to astronomy and mathematics.
I love the way all the names feel upon my tongue! Thank you for the pronunciations! Now I’m saying them all the time! Think I’ll save this video for future dog names.
The Aztec Mythology is so wild & random OH MY GAWD!! it seems the tellers just added what things they thought fascinating. because i don't see any morals or something relating in them. it looks they just tried to explain their world, in a way that sounded cool. but seriously, the shifts and twists in their mythos. what mostly gets to me is when they create things that doesn't get mentioned again. their mention is only limited to a single story.
i really couldn't agree more. i searched alot of comments but no one mentions this. i mean, i'm not being picky. an old mythology doesn't exist to satisfy me (even though we established it focuses on amusement). but it really seems too far fetched and sort of childish in its fabrication. though you have to be fare when it comes to the fact they didn't have as much chance for development as the (Norse/Greek/Japanese/Egyptian) civilizations had. these had animals that can be tamed as cattle and even used for transportation. also crops like wheat that can make for a stable agricultural life style. and much else that kept them from developing their civilization, which would develop their mythology alongside it.
@@seshomarusama-sc8pb you made a good point. they didn't have the elements to grow as a culture like the old world civilizations. if you consider they had no animals to ride like horses, that could transport through great distances to reach different cities and exchange knowledge. even the greek mythology was crude at it's begginings and the stories weren't as elaborate as we know them today. this is like a pilot episode of what the Aztec Mythology could've been. but the show didn't get the funding it deserved so this is all we got. (shame really, i would've watched it.)
Are you stupid? What did they have to go from? Imagine trying to explain every dynamic of life and our environment without much preceding knowledge lol I wonder if you say the same about the Roman mythology about two men drinking from a dog’s teet
