Drawing extensively on Indigenous accounts and Nahuatl sources, the book gives particular attention to how the arrival of the Spanish and the fall of Tenochtitlan were experienced and remembered by the Aztecs and other Indigenous communities.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe narrative covers the arrival of Hernán Cortés, the encounters between the Spanish and the Aztecs, the siege and destruction of Tenochtitlan, and the dramatic events surrounding the collapse of Aztec political power. Rather than relying solely on Spanish accounts, León-Portilla highlights Indigenous voices, speeches, memories, and historical traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe title The Broken Spears evokes the image of a civilization overwhelmed by war and conquest, while the Indigenous testimonies preserve the fears, hopes, suffering, and reactions of those who witnessed the events.
