This is a major no-no for homework assignments.
Plus, the thesis is muddy.
It’s called getting help.
Not like I’m asking you to write the report for me.
Sorry if I couldn’t find the information. Besides, I asked a question. If you don’t want to answer it, then don’t reply.
Will you help me with my homework?
“We will, provided you’re not asking us for the answer! Our members will be happy to help you think through a problem, assist you with a sticky spot, explain where you’ve gone wrong, or point you in the right direction for further research. We won’t actually do your homework for you, though, so please don’t ask us to. We’re here to help you learn, not to help you cheat! In fact, any posts that give you the answer will be removed. When asking for homework help, give as much detail as possible and tell us what you’ve already tried. We’ll have you back on track in no time!”
Ok. Your question does not make sense, as written. “What is the influence of Aztec art?” does.
Perhaps you’d have an easier time clarifying our question. Which history? There is not a lot of historical influence on Aztec art because they were isolated within Central America. And when Cortes defeated Moctezuma, the Spaniards, in typical colonizing fashion, put an end to as much of Aztec culture as possible.
Is this a report for history class? or for an art class? Anthropology class?
I disagree with @zenvelo on one aspect. Of course history most likely played a part in their art. But it was Central American history and not European history. I know anthropologists in the last few decades have learned a whole lot more about Central American history than they did 20 – 30 years ago.
So I’m sure there are answers out there, but I don’t know them. The only stuff I know about Aztec history comes from PBS documentaries, and I always get the Aztec, Inca, Maya and Toltec stuff all mixed up. It’s interesting stuff, but I suck at remembering what goes where.
