This is another frame capture from video, using the Canon PowerShot A1100 IS Digital Camera. This is from the first dance performed that night by Yankuititl, which I have the video of on YouTube. The kids didn't get to do much dancing until later, and that video will eventually be posted.

The musicians were performing on what appears to be authentic instruments from that era -- or at least made in the same image. Drums, conch shells and flutes. They have managed to keep the same music and dance that had been performed by the Aztecs more than five hundred years ago.

This is also a frame capture taken from video, using the Canon PowerShot A1100 IS Digital Camera. To see the video, go to YouTube:

Like many Native tribes and peoples, the Aztecs combined religion with their dance and music. As you will see in the video, the religious part of the music and dance was elaborate, and then they got into the dancing and music proper.

The video was shot on August 21, 2015.
