In his letters, Cortes tries not to miss any vital information and tries to report all the details about the city. His descriptions make his writing a primary source. Cortes chose certain topics which makes his writing audience-oriented. He also mentions the knowledge about the geology of the area because it was the indicator of life and death for early conquerors.
