Hey there, would anyone suggest any books or articles regarding the Mesoamerican countries? Including Mays, Aztecs, Inks etc.
It would be nice to find out how these people have lived over the centuries.
Thank you!

I think you will be very hard pressed to find any actual reliable first hand sources on the subject. I am also bumping for interest though.

First hand account of Cortez's conquest of the aztec empire.

The Broken Spears is a nice read if you want an Aztec account of the Spanish Conquest, but it doesnt have much in the way of reliable historical information

I have a load of books on these subjects in pdf form. If you are patient I can upload them to mega
Also Inka are not Mesoamerican, just wanna clarify. They're interesting too though so you should get to know about them and the andean people as well.

... but isn't this one of the rare instances where there are written sources, written by people who actually were there, and they wrote them down quite quickly after that. Of course it's slightly biased, but they actually experienced it.
