The high quality of the Olmec mirrors and the
desappearence of their technology surprise us. The mirrors
influenced on religion (Tezcatlipoca, "The smoking mirror", god which
has one foot substitute my one smoking mirror, f.ex.) and could have
made the natives to reverenciate the europeans who arrived,
because this had mirrors, something that only praists or noble people
had. Under this information, we can see history rather different
than we imagine when studied "The Conquering of America" at the school.
Figures appearing in front of converging mirrors
(there is a magic based on this named as "The Aztec Rose) could have
being used to attribute divine powers to the owners of mirrors.
The image appears floating in the air, inmaterial as a holographic one.
