| | | Authentic Aztec Hoe Money | The Aztecs were a
barbarian tribe who
came into the Valley
of Mexico during the
13th Century. Their
language, Uto-Aztecan
was once widely
spoken from
Washington State all
the way down to
Nicaragua. Hoe (
because of the
shape ) money was
extensively used by
all classes of Aztec
society, it was all
made of thin copper,
of standard size and
weight.
The Aztecs were
conquered and
enslaved by Hernan
Cortes in 1521.
Their ' hoe money '
survived the ravages
of time and is often
found in underground
hoards. Each is
approximately 6.5"
long, 2" wide and
1.5mm thick.
