The tracks of the Aztec culture, on the other hand, can often be spotted in the rural areas of Mexico which were not touched by the modern processes. Folk arts, handcrafts, such as ceramics, weaving etc., cuisine – in some areas their authentic Aztec origin was preserved. 
As for the dance and music, those arts in Mexico combined native and brought-in features, bringing very unique pieces of art into Mexico’s culture.
