The attitudes of the Spaniards toward the Aztec rebellion, according to the criteria of Lopez de Gómara were of consternation, and disdain, as he opposed the Mexican rebellion.
<h3>Why Spaniards had these sentiments against Aztecs?</h3>
In his text, Gómara referred to the Indians in Tenochtitlán as a "beast" just because they were very different from the Spaniards.
Native Indians did not wear the clothes Spaniards wore. Indians did not have horses for daily chores.
Gómora said that Aztecs were ignorant people. They had no education and did not have currency, so necessary for economic transactions.
He also said Indians were sinners because they did not believe in the one and only god. Indians worshiped many gods.
He was comparing a different society with the European society of the time. It means that Indians lived a totally different life in contact with and respect for mother nature. Something the Spaniards and Europeans would never understand in North America or South America.
We conclude that López de Gómara opposed the Mexican rebellion and described the Indians with consternation and disdain. Europeans never tried to understand the circumstances of the Native Indians.
