These are the things I think about because I love to wear an Aztec silk scarf.

The Aztecs were recognized for their amazing craftsmanship and culture, they thrived in central Mexico is the 1300-1500's. This Mesoamerican civilization was known for its unique geometric patterns and their craftsmanship in embroidery, weaving and jewelry making. The Aztec artisans became well known for their work. 

Aztec symbols such as the sun, eagles, and serpents often appear in their designs. Often they are a mythological representation - meaning that the object is exaggerated and not true to an exact replication of it. For example, a snake is represented by a mythological serpent because it's distorted is shape or size. The sun, a central figure in Aztec mythology, energy, life and the nature of existence. Eagles symbolize strength, courage, and freedom, while serpents are often associated with fertility, wisdom, and the earth.
