Item Number: AZ-22
Item Name: Aztec Priest with Captive
Description: The Aztec state was centered on political expansion and dominance of and exaction of tribute from other city states, and warfare was the basic dynamic force in Aztec politics. Aztec society was also centered on warfare: every Aztec male received basic military training from an early age and the only possibility of upwards social mobility for commoners was through military achievement — especially the taking of captives.
The sacrifice of war captives was an important part of many of the Aztec religious festivals.Company: John Jenkins Designs, 1/30th Scale 60mm Figures
