America is a continent that lies between two oceans, the Pacific ocean in the west and the Atlantic ocean in the east. Continental United States, before the coming of Western nations, has been inhabited by Indian tribes who come from Asia is estimated. There are many versions about the origins of Indian peoples in the United States, for example:
a. Muhammad Yamin in his book "History of America" said that the Indian nations are from Asia, into the United States in 3 waves at the time of neolithikum. The first
wave of migration is the Mongols from Asia to the East Sea with North America via
Bering Strait, approximately 13,000 years ago. The second wave of Austronesian
peoples from west to east through the Pacific ocean and arrive in South America.
Third wave of migration by sea Austronesia ocean currents that move from New
Zealand and East Asia moves toward South America. Solidarity between peoples and Mongols Austronesia forth in the American Indian nations.
b. According to another version, approximately 20,000 to 50,000 years ago the nation
Amurian from Siberia in Russia wade through the Bering strait to the continent
Amerika.kemudian followed by the Mongols to the early centuries BC-1, from
mixing the two nations, the United States was born Indian civilization (Amerind ) that
spread throughout the continental United States from north to south, they live from
hunting, fishing, gathering food and wild fruits.
Indian nations are developing in the United States consist of various tribes. Among the tribes of Indian nations, which have the high civilization and culture, such as The Aztek and Maya in Mexico and the Inca tribe in Peru.
a. Aztec culture
Nahua tribe, who arrived in the last Mexican land high, inherited the family culture in a broad area. One of the tribe that is or Mexica-Aztec Aztec. In the beginning of the nation is the Aztec tribe who first fought in the borderland region. During their odyssey as a group of outside lines, Aztec nations sometimes have to decline dressed leaves and insects to eat. In the years around 1325 BC until the Aztec nation is now at the city of Mexico. That time the place is a marshy lake plate and smaller islands.
On an island in the lake Tecoco, Aztec nations have inspiring because it was such looked a eagle with a snake in the mouth, who are on a perch on the cactus. Because it is considered as a supernatural omen, the pastor declaration that island nation have been selected for the Aztec gods by them. In there build their city Tenochtitlan. They expand the city with the raft-raft made of plaited rattan twig and the hillock soil and plants. In the area of this lake they develop agriculture that is primitive. City Tenocthitlan the Aztec nation was founded by then evolved into a center of ritual activities. Cult pyramid-shaped building lot is established.
Aztec nation is a nation that go to war, for them the war is part of the culture and part of the system of belief. Aztec nation worship many gods or politheisme. They worship the sun god Huitzilochti. They believe that the sun is the source of life and must be continually maintained, continue to be outstanding on orbite and rotates up and drowned. Lubricant is needed for the pure blood of the people. They believe that human sacrifice is a sacred task and must be done so that the sun god still provide prosperity for people. The ritual sacrifice is done over the altar culminated pyramid by taking a heart for the victims of clergy. Ritual human sacrifice is also done in bulk in a way to kill many people.
There are three hypothetical made by the anthropologist about the reasons of human reason for the addition of the god, namely:
1. Sacrifice is done to reduce the number of people, especially since the number of
prisoners of war increased rapidly compared with the number of births.
2. To give to the bodies of people who sacrificed as a source of protein and vitamins.
Hypothetical is very weak, because the Aztec nation produce corn, beans, and keep
the dog, chickens and turkeys.
3. Opinion is more rational to scaring the protester and the rebels, so they do
not fight against the king's authority. Many of the prisoners of war and made a large
number of victims to the sun god, the people who become innocent targets also fall
victim to such a general one in lead the war, the grafter, the judge wrongly decided,
and state officials who do wrong, including the enter the forbidden area of the king's
palace.
In book State and Nation, Huzlopochtli mentioned that, in particular, as gluttonous so special ceremony at the thousands of people sacrificed as offerings in time for one day only. Monte Zuma II never compromising the 5100 victims in a memorial service hi throne. At the time Ahuitzolt the power on the 15-th century, at least 20,000 people become victims of life in the ceremony. Send with potential victims to the top of pyramid where the pastor gets their heart and cut the victim with a knife a glass stone, and dedicating with warm and still-warm blood smeared the stone altar to the gods. For offering such a mass, the Aztec nation can not rely on volunteers and therefore, they often send a group of combatants to the allies to intercept the candidates of the victim.
At the peak of the triumph of Aztec, Tenochittlan is the central ritual of the blood to-be. Various reception ritual and other, creating a life-visional by the symbol of death. For the Aztec nation, human blood is a ritual to prevent the destruction of the world, that they are marked by lost the sun. The ritual sacrifice to the Aztec nation is not that egregious, as well as for potential victims. According to their belief, in the death of the pastor is an honor. Be devoted to the victims of the gods with a chest chop and take heart, not so angry and hungry, and bring in natural disasters. Belief in this view of the Aztec influence. Since childhood they have been trained to be ready to sacrifice rituals when their captivity in the war. Died as a sacrifice for the ceremony means that chip in their hearts and blood to be devoted to the sun god, and thus participate in the strengthening sun daily battle against the dark (night) so that they become an important part of the sun.
Aztec nations have built art or architecture that is very high. When the people come to Spain Tenocl cities (Mexico City) they see the progress of this nation. Here there are buildings such as aquadec or other building, where the main street of the city, wide streets, and canals that go through the city and the bridge above. Buildings using high technology, according to time. In the center of the city built major temples as offerings to the sun god. High building 30 meters, consists of three levels, each level has a 120 round. Build in the streets and canals that are wide to facilitate the traffic of merchandise and people. Program in trade is their sell-buy ducks, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, and deer.
Aztec architecture nations are simple, more important function than physical beauty. In the mountains, home of the Aztec bricks are dried, like a brick that we know in Indonesia. In low, their house sided branches or rice that plestered with clay and roof with reed. As an additional residence on the main, generally they have other buildings such as storage and the entire family steam bath. Aztec rich people who have a house of brick or stone built a corral Patio, namely the wide open space in the middle of the house.
Aztec temples and other buildings decorated with statues is one of the beautiful works in the United States. But only a few relicts of Aztec architecture that can still be found. Spanish people, who are Christians, have to destroy temples and religious heritage of the Aztec. They have even destroyed the old city Tenochitlan.
Of processed agricultural products in the fields of agriculture fields are avocado, red beans and corn, they also make a craft of gold and silver for jewelry. From trading activities and types of goods them product that sell-buy and facilities supporting the build experts concluded that the nation has a level of Aztec culture and civilization that high. This collapse of civilization due to conquest by the Spanish under Hernando Cortez in 1521.

This corpse rounding bodies other suspected remains of those who oversee sacrificed king to lead a trip to another world. In this room, also found the decoration of precious stones, bones and conch, and glassware that showed the wealth of culture.

The building was founded around the year 250 BC. Survival of this kind is also found in the northern Maya area.
In the Classical era, the year 300-500, culture Maya tribes in the middle of the peak of glory. Architecture developed with the increase in the quality of the building.
