81. The Mexica / Aztecs
    They date the beginning of their history to 1168 and their origins to an island in the middle of a lake north of the Valley of mexico.  
    http://www.wsu.edu/~dee/CIVAMRCA/AZTECS.HTM
    
    Extractions: Aztec , is a startlingly imprecise term to describe the culture that dominated the Valley of Mexico in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Properly speaking, all the Nahua-speaking peoples in the Valley of Mexico were Aztecs, while the culture that dominated the area was a tribe of the Mexica (pronounced "me-shee-ka") called the Tenochca ("te-noch-ka"). At the time of the European conquest, they called themselves either "Tenochca" or " Toltec ," which was the name assumed by the bearers of the Classic Mesoamerican culture. The earliest we know about the Mexica is that they migrated from the north into the Valley of Mexico as early as the twelfth century AD, well after the close of the Classic Period in Mesoamerica. They were a subject and abject people, forced to live on the worst lands in the valley. They adopted the cultural patterns (called Mixteca-Pueblo ) that originated in the culture of

82. WAIS - World Affairs Report - The V Of Mexican History
    Back to Index. The V of Mexican history. Mexican history is shaped like aV one arm stretches northwest to the United States, the other northeast to Europe.  
    http://wais.stanford.edu/Mexico/mexico_v.html
    
    Extractions: Back to Index Mexican history is shaped like a V: one arm stretches northwest to the United States, the other northeast to Europe. The V has several layers. The bottom point is pre-Colombian, revived in the celebrations this year of the 650th anniversary of the founding of Tenochtitlan and in a more spectacular way in the celebration of the coming of Spring. The most publicized of the many celebrations is at Teotihuacan, where half a million people are expected, and at El Tajín, just south of Poza Rica (Veracruz), where the festivities (which allegedly began over a thousand years ago) will last five days and five nights. The event has become commercialized, with strobe lights and all the trimmings. The third level is the US and NAFTA. PAN presidential candidate Vicente Fox has just visited Washington, where he addressed the Center for Strategic and International Studies. His theme was that Mexico will develop a two-party system like that of the US. Sure enough, the audience wanted to know about the price of Mexican oil, a question he sidestepped. So much for interest in Mexico as Mexico.

83. Ciudad De México.- City History
    the principal cradle of civilization in Mesoamerica, known by the generic name of Olmeca, actually developed around the tropical Gulf coast region of mexico.  
    http://www.mexicocity.com.mx/history1.html
    
    Extractions: The central region of the Mexican high plateau has been inhabited for at least 20,000 years, as evidenced by the artifacts unearthed at Tlapacoya and Tepexpan, although the principal cradle of civilization in Mesoamerica, known by the generic name of Olmeca, actually developed around the tropical Gulf coast region of Mexico. Within the Valley of Mexico the remains found at Tlatilco, dated to between 1500 B.C. and 500 B.C., are of particular significance. It is likely that the figurines found at this spot were included in burial offerings. In general, they represent female figures of a common physical stereotype with rather realistic, delicate features. Zoomorphic vases, seals, and other figures of the Olmeca type have also been recovered here. It is believed that these objects were dedicated to a cult to the dead which existed during the pre-Hispanic era and which has endured in contemporary worship. Other groups gradually established settlements along the fertile shores of the lakes. They practiced an incipient form of agriculture and supplemented their diet with fish and small amphibians from the lake, and insects and mammals from the surrounding forests. Copilco, Tetelpan and Cuicuilco were some of the more notable ceremonial sites existing during the period from 500 B.C. to 100 A.D.. Cuicuilco, in particular, was distinguished by its circular pyramid which was eventually engulfed by the lava flows from the eruption of the Xitle volcano during the 1st Century A.D.

86. IPv6 In Mexico - History
    A brief history of it By the Winter of 1992 the Internet community had developed four separate proposals for IPng. IPv6 in mexico.  
    http://www.netlab.unam.mx/site/history.html
    
    Extractions: IPv6 History The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has produced a comprehensive set of specifications (RFC 1752, 1883, 1886, 1971, 1993, etc.) that define the next-generation IP protocol known as "IPng," or "IPv6." IPng is a new version of IP which is designed to be an evolutionary step from IPv4, and it represents the evolution of many different IETF proposals and working groups focused on developing an IPng. A brief history of it: - By the Winter of 1992 the Internet community had developed four separate proposals for IPng. These were "CNAT", "IP Encaps", "Nimrod", and "Simple CLNP". - By the fall of 1993, IPAE merged with SIP while still maintaining the name SIP. This group later merged with PIP and the resulting working group called themselves "Simple Internet Protocol Plus" (SIPP). At about the same time the TP/IX Working Group changed its name to "Common Architecture for the Internet" (CATNIP).

    Extractions: And the king said: "Yes, I am Motecuhzoma." Then he stood up to welcome Cortés; he came forward, bowed his head low and addressed him in these words: "Our lord, you are weary. The journey has tired you, but now you have arrived on the earth. You have come to your city, Mexico. You have come here to sit on your throne, to sit under its canopy. "No, it is not a dream. I am not walking in my sleep. I am not seeing you in my dreams.... I have seen you at last! I have met you face to face! I was in agony for five days, for ten days, with my eyes fixed on the Region of the Mystery. And now you have come out of the clouds and mists to sit on your throne again.
