I took a class on mesoamerican cultures in College. the one thing that really sticks with me was how fucked up the aztecs were. Their idea of a religious thing to do was to take a cord strudded with thorns, pierce their tender bits, and drag the cord back and forth through it. They were so into human sacrifice that there is actually a class of artifact called a <i>tzompli</i> (or something very like that) which is a rack for holding multipe skulls from multiple sacrifices.
Not nice people. If ever was a culture that probably needed to be killed off....
