Mexico Smallpox Epidemic (1 apr 1519 anni – 1 ottob 1520 anni)
Descrizione:
The introduction of smallpox among the Aztecs has been attributed to an African slave (by the name of Francisco Eguía, according to one account) but this has been disputed. From May to September, smallpox spread slowly to Tepeaca and Tlaxcala, and to Tenochtitlán by the fall of 1520. At this time, Cortes was returning to conquer the city after being thrown out on the Noche Triste.Aggiunto al nastro di tempo:
