  The Aztecs believed alcohol to have a divine origin, with a god and goddess giving birth to 400 (meaning innumerable in ancient Aztec) divine children or 'rabbit gods', each representing a varying degree and expression of alcohol intoxication and drunkenness. This book intends to contribute to the scholarly discussion on the topic of drunkenness.
