Aztecs were never in Utah. The Spaniards did come here and enslave the local Navajo, Utes and Paiutes. Forcing them to work in the mines for, mostly silver, some gold. This gold and silver was Pack muled out to the gulf of Mexico, where it was shipped back to Queen Isabella. It was reported to have amounted to 1/3 of the Spanish treasury at the time. The Indians rebelled. killed off the Spanish and drove them out. So conquistador armor and gold has been found all over Utah. There are so many stories of lost caves/mines with Spanish gold, that every small town has their own version. Many a sheep herder boy, looking for a lost ewe, stumbled across a small whole in the ground filled with armor and gold. But the story always ends he couldn't locate the spot when he took others back......However, some has been found! We can only dream.
