Thanks for the comment. I have corrected the post for your points 2 and 3. I made a sweeping generalization of region and introduced an unintentional error.

As for Moctezuma, you are also correct. As to why many sites have it wrong, well, Montezuma is a legitimate varient spelling. It’s the common spelling (and represents the pronunciation) that I learned as a child and that continues to be taught in schools here in the U.S. So that my most typical audience understands who I am talking about I used the name they would best relate to.

1.- when you refer to the aztec emperor, it is not Montezuma, the correct name is Moctezuma (google it). Actually there is a beer brand with that name (www.ccm.com.mx). Unfortunatly I do not know why many sites on internet have the wrong name, but believe me I am right.

2.- Mayans did not live in southamerica

3.- Aztecs never lived in central or southamerica, only in the ancient Mexico

And I know what I am talking about because I am mexican.

Nice site, greetings
