> I have yet to find a society with wealth that looks at gold with no more than amusement. The Aztec Empire (and most other New World cultures) knew and used gold, and fits your definition perfectly. They used cacao beans as storage of value. The Spaniards — who threw cacao beans in the water but were ready to kill for the gold — were quite a surprise for them. |
