mattoleriver Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'm currently reading The Memoirs of the Conquistador Bernal Diaz del Castillo. In every stop along the way the conquistadors shook down the locals for whatever they could get but almost always that included fowl. The author never specifies what fowl these may have been. I assume that the indigenous peoples kept turkeys but what other fowl may have been kept at that time? Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainecoons Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 My theory is the Aztecs lost because they didn't have our roosters to get them moving in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattoleriver Posted March 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 The Memoirs of the Conquistador by Bernal Diaz del Castillo is on sale for Kindle on Amazon--free. Two big volumes! Lots of info but kind of a slog getting through it. If the author can be believed the Aztecs were quite the cannibals which makes them kinda foul, themselves.
