 Mexicans need to recover our historical memory in order to end colonization. They have made us think that the conquest is the source of our problems. However, the problem is much bigger, deeper and more ancient. Indeed, it is in the collapse of the Classical period, where Mexicans of today find our real problem. The physical destruction of all the knowledge centers, today called archaeological zones of the Classical period and the amazing disappearance of the human beings that inhabited them, represents an impressive civilization crisis for the Anahuac. The ephemeral power, invasion and philosophical—religious transgression by the Aztecs and the Spanish colonization are the effects or results of this cultural catastrophe.
