Based on the documents that I have read, I have learned many things about the arrival, and possible expectation, of Cortes. The documents that I read led me to believe that Moctezuma was very excited to meet Cortes. Document B stated that Moctezuma welcomed Cortes to Mexico by saying that his throne was kept for him and that he has been worried about Cortes for a long time. He also said that he was looking toward the unknown place from which he had come, Moctezuma believed that he would return to his city and sit upon this throne due to what he was told by their ancestors. Cortes was told to enjoy his palace and rest his body. After some time, I’m not sure that Moctezuma was as thrilled about Cortes being there as he was when he first arrived,
