The differences are many, for the Aztecs, work is the base of the family; the father always has to travel to respond with the responsibilities of the house. Mainly, the Aztecs based their work in two important economic activities: the agriculture and commerce. Generally, they are dedicated to the construction of floating orchards, the chinampas (island that they form and is very fertile), and facts with canes, branches, clay and slime. The livestock is poor. Besides, they used the “water birds” and the fish like economic activity, these are an important resource. In the market, they practiced the commerce supported by the exchange. The things more used were seeds of cocoa, the price varied according to the quality. In Egyptian civilization, work responds to needs to people.
