Which choice most logically completes the text? Compiled in the late 1500s largely through the efforts of Indigenous scribes, Cantares Mexicanos is the most important collection of poetry in Classical Nahuatl, the principal language of the Aztec Empire. The poems portray Aztec s ociety before the occupation of the empire by the army of Spain, and marginal notes in Cantares Mexicanos indicate that much of the collection's content predates the initial invasion. Nonetheless, some of the poems contain inarguable references to belief s and customs common in Spain during this era. Thus, some scholars have concluded that ______.
- 1the references to beliefs and custo ms in Spain should be attributed to a coincidental resemblance between the societies of Spain and the Aztec Empire.
- 2before the invasion by Spain, the poets of th e Aztec Empire borrowed from the literary traditions of other societies.
- 3although those who compiled Cantares Mexicanos were fluent in Nahuatl, they had limited knowledge of the Spanish language.
- 4while its content largely predates the invasion, Cantares Mexicanos also contains additions made after the invasion.✓
