Montezuma ii did not attack cortes initially because
a. he wasn’t worried about cortes taking over the aztec empire
b. cortes’ forces outnumbered the aztecs
c. he considered making cortes an ally to him take over the yucatan
d. he believed cortes was the aztec god quetzalcoatl

The correct option is D

Moctezuma believed that Cortes could be related to Quetzalcoatl, taking into consideration the prophecy which said "from the east will come white and bearded men" and thought that if the Spanish allowed them to adorn him with his attributes it would be proven that such a relationship was true, since No one would dare allow themselves to be decorated in such a way without being authorized for it by the deity.
