Okay, this is pretty incredible. A 3D artist, consulting scholars and archaeologists, worked for a year and a half in Blender to create a reconstruction of pre-Columbian Tenochtitlán, complete with the surrounding landscape. It’s staggeringly beautiful, and—at least to me—gives a wonderful impression of the city as a place where people worked and lived and worshiped
HOLY SHIT CLICK THROUGH THIS IS INCREDIBLE
Gary Jennings wrote an AMAZING (and thicc) novel about Tenochtitlán and the Aztec people, appropriately titled AZTEC, and it remains one of my favorite historical fiction novels ever. I love that I can now see an accurate reproduction of the setting in phenomenal detail.
