At the museum

Yesterday at the museum we went to the Aztec world. When we were there we learned about how they sacrificed humans so their Gods would not bring wrath upon them. Some of their people would put their own blood in an offering stone box and who ever put their blood in it would be sacrificed to the gods. The Aztec culture would play Ullamaliztli {a ball game} that two teams would play. There was a 9 pound rubber ball that they could only touch with their hips and knees. One of their gods Cipactil or the earth monster was the creator of the earth.
Later on we went to the Underground where we could see what was in the soil, there were ants, spiders or wolf spiders, snails, Goliath beetles and regular beetles.
After that we went to the ancient Americans where there was a sun calendar. It was huge! Then we went to the native American and we saw the way they fished and how they dressed.
After we were done I thought it was pretty cool that we got to learn about how the Aztecs knew where their home land is, they knew by looking for the eagle perched on a cactus growing from a stone.
All the other stuff we had already seen before and it was awesome, except for the underground it was the first time we went and that was sweet.
