The *really* bizarre thing here is U of Chicago has an Anthropology Department and the first course in the Anthropology sequence is entitled
"ANTH 20100. The Inka and Aztec States. 100 Units.
This course is an intensive examination of the origins, structure, and meaning of two native states of the ancient Americas: the Inka and the Aztec. "

I say that they get the Anthropology Prof that teaches this to judge on the Front Porch. Women correctly dressed get into the party, those whose dress is inappropriate, get treated the way that an Aztec women improperly dressed for her station in Aztec life gets treated."
