> - Aztecs were burning incense around the conquistadors to hide their unpleasant body odor (documented) The conquistadors spent months packed on a boat together with pigs and other livestock, then were basically camping out as they traveled.

I smell pretty unpleasant after a single day on a roadtrip, kids can confirm. * I think this is a more accurate term than Aztec, based on my rereads of 1491.
