11 DECEMBER – 30 DECEMBER: DAYS OF THE DESCENT OF WATER

14 DECEMBER It’s wet. That’s why they call these days the ‘Days of the Descent of Water’, because it usually rains about this time. Well, at least it’s giving the pyramid a good wash down. But it’s cold and muddy work out on the streets. At least it’s a quiet time for the sacrifices. None of the nasty bits to sweep up.

30 DECEMBER – 19 JANUARY: DAYS OF THE STRETCHING

3 JANUARY The merchants pray for good trade. They sacrifice a few slaves, of course. And the priests dress up as gods and do some very nice dancing before a great feast with the lords. Of course, I never get invited to the feasts. Remind me never to become a merchant slave. I really don’t want my heart ripped out of my chest – even if the Aztecs say it is a Great honour.
