For the last post, this is why one has to be very careful when talking about non-western #philosophy and #religion . There is a long #history of scholars saying people outside of #europe were not capable of philosophy and #rationality.

Portilla was the founder of modern #aztec #history but he faced backlash over his work that is now considered the foundation to the #mesoamerican field.

To be dismissive in #anthropology works is to continue this legacy.
