A Franciscan missionary to the Aztecs in 1529, Friar Bernardino Sahagûn is considered 'the father of ethnology', as his study was the first to derive from the subjects' own point of view. The largest and most richly detailed account of the Aztecs' customs, religion and language before the Spanish conquest.
