voluntary sacrifices, and thanked them for their services.

However, they DO speak Spanish in "Teotihuacan" these days, so the Latin-based stuff DID find its way over there.

No way Jose!

Roman armies were up to their ears in 550AD in fending off hoards of in-bound Huns to worry over invading Titihuacan.

Fortunately for us in the New World, the Spanish that has evolved here is much easier on the ears than the Peninsular variety.

Well that explains everything. I'm going to contact my bishop and get back in the water. All I need is confirmation from the Holy Ghost that aliens intervened to trick us. "Oh God hear the words of my mouth. Are you there? I can't quite hear your still, small voice. Speak up, I'm partially deaf."

It is only a work of fiction but in the novel I,Claudius by Robert Graves it is said that Julia, the only child and daughter of Augustus (Roman Emperor during time of Jesus' birth) had a wig made from the entire scalp of a German princess.
