I have always been interested in symbols and nations. Eagles are awesome birds and the history of the eagle and the aztecs is part of their myths. or maybe reality . Eagle nations,Russia,USA, Mexico, Germany, Iran I believe, etc. I wish I knew what the healers of the aztec people knew about eagles and their importance. I mean many tribes have healers that use an eagle bone whistle to call in the spirits. Which the whistle does in my opinion. Eagles are awesome.
