Pueblo Magic: In the Land of Montezuma - Paperback
About this item
by John Lemay (Author)
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, there existed a curious legend that Montezuma, the Aztec emperor of Mexico, had been born somewhere in the American Southwest. The stories went that he was a legendary shaman who performed miracles and slayed monsters before boarding the back of a great eagle and flying southward, where he founded the Aztec kingdom in Mexico. Before departing, Montezuma was said to ignite an eternal flame to be kept burning until his return. Over time, the fire faded, and the prophecy never came to be. Although Montezuma never returned as promised, he left his mark on the landscape of Arizona and New Mexico forever. From rumors of a giant rattlesnake at Pecos Pueblo to buried treasure at Taos Peak, this tome corrals the many myths of Montezuma in the Southwest.
