Yes they had writing since the Olmecs at least, why would you ask such a stupid question that you could have answered for yourself in less time than it took you to make this shitthread?

>>2845797
yes, they had their own writing sistems which differ from culture to culture which was a clusterfuck for Mexican civilizations for example since we had like 300 tribes in the area around Mexico city, then we had the Mayans who wrote the Popol Vuh which is like their genesis in a totally different language than the aztecs

Did this really happen or is anti colonial propaganda?

>>2845797
>Where the american natives a civilization with written word?
Yes.

>Is this writting?
No. Aztecs didn't have proper writing.

>>2845913
Thanks, so only the maya did? and they kept it secret did not teach others?

>>2845908
Yes it did, no it wouldn't be anti-colonial propaganda, Mexicans WE WUZing as the Aztec and Maya is a phenomenon so relatively recent it breaks the 25 year rule. Anti-colonial propaganda was MUH CATHOLICISM and MUH RIGHTS OF MAN.

>>2845913
Aztec glyphs are too writing you double nigger. Logographies and logosyllabaries are just as much writing as alphabets, abjads, abugidas, and syllabaries. The fact that the OP's pic isn't writing doesn't change that fact, or are you seriously going to argue that Chinese and Sumerian have never had writing?

>>2845944
Interesting, from what I read the aztecs were pretty much genocided and their city leveled, so there is probably no pure aztec left and the % of mexicans with aztec blood must be like 1%

>>2845973
There's Aztecs (And Maya) left, they're just treated like dirt by the Mestizo majority, live in self induced squalor and oppression, and live in crushing poverty. Think Canadian Indians, but sweatier. It makes sense as the majority of Mestizos are descended from the tribes the Aztec and Maya enslaved and used to fuel their blood sacrifices, but it's hilarious that said Mestizos also LARP as the very people they despise.

No it's not writing, it's proto-writing at best.

>Sumerian have never had writing?
I will. Sumerians they didn't have writing before the Akkadians.

Thanks for exposing yourself as a simpleton. Do me a favor and adopt a tripcode so I can block your retarded ass.

Imagine if we could read what its in their monuments

>>2846027
Some of it has been deciphered, in fact I can recognize some, the Hieroglyphic Stairway on the copan archeological site is the longest Mayan Hieroglyphic text, unfortunately it hasn't been put back in the correct order yet.

Where the mayans in the same tier as the Sumerians?

>writing
No of course it wasn't fucking writing, fucking redskin savages were never capable of that level of civilization because they were too busy eating and scalping each other.

They were pretty advance , why the hate?

>>2846007
Worth noting a bunch of priests opposed this

>>2845980
The mestizo populations of Southern mexico are very much Mayan, and the actual Mayans living like "Mayans" are mixed too. So basically the only difference is some of them give a shit about their ancestry and the rest don't.

>>2847595
>muh moderate christians
Fuck off.

>>2847571
...PRETTY ADVANCED?

THOSE APES??

THOSE MINDLESS BABOONS???

ARE YOU SURE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE SAME PEOPLES???

>>2847171
Wasnt the part about them being cannibals propaganda by priests? There are actual records that they first believed that the natives lived in Eden

You'd think fuckfaces in a history board would be precise with whoever the fuck it is they want to talk about instead of using shit terms like "African" "Asian" or "Native American."
