This empire’s worship of excrement is exemplified by an emancipation method involving stepping on poop and a paper by Cecelia Klein discussing their art’s “holy shit.” The burning of photographic histories of this empire was ordered by a leader whose nephew succeeded him as “Great Speaker.” An explorer’s claim that he committed a massacre in this empire to prevent an ambush is contradicted by Bernardino (15[1])de Sahagún. (15[2])A later massacre in this empire conducted by (*) Pedro de Alvarado (-5[1])occurred during that explorer’s absence. The religious sacrifice-based “Flower Wars” (10[1])were supported (10[1])by a ruler of this empire (10[1])following his diplomatic coronation commemorated on a stone depicting the “4 Rain-sun” and “4 Jaguar-sun.” For 10 points, name this empire that was overthrown by Hernán Cortés (10[1])while being led by Montezuma II from Tenochtitlan. ■END■ (10[1])
