> Le Mesoamerican didnt have metal weapons
This when most of the mesoamerican soldiers had metal axes in their arsenal called "Tepoztli" which could be of copper or bronze and when we have found bronze artifacts in Toluca and Hidalgo, all of them in the aztec empire, and we have found an aztec province which produced bronze called "El platanito" in the huastec tributary region.
Bernal Diaz del castillo also commented that he found bronze axes in the tlatelolco market in Tenochtitlan.

And all of this excluding the metal prdouction of the prehispanic west mexico (Tarascan and also parts of the aztec empire) which was the most prominent region at metalurgy

bump

nobody cares so im giving this pity reply to drive attention towards your thread

Yeah, but so what?
The biggest problem with Mesoamerican technology wasn't that they didn't know about various tools or concepts, it's that they didn't care. Take the wheel for instance, it was considered a children's toy.

This. These guys would get curbstomped by sea people with iron swords.

Oh wow! A handful of redskins were *only* 2500 years behind Europeans instead of 8,000! Great thread. Two more weeks and they would have had steam engines.

The sea people having Iron weapons is just conjecture by historians and Iron was developed before they showed up.
Very little is actually known about the Sea People so there's a void that's been filled with make believe.

>>64027757
We know a lot about the Sea People's. They're who Plato described in Timaeus.

>>64027762
Nah, they were the Termilae described by Herodotus.

The main sources for the existence of a group we call the sea people are Egyptian and pre-date ancient Greece by hundreds of years.
