An unidentified wife of his is the focus of the top-left family tree, and his son and heir to the throne, tlatoani Tepiçiatzin [Tepiziatzin], is central to the top-right drawing. Both of these connect to the central circular genealogy of Mixtecatzin. In concentric circles, the diagram depicts twenty-one women and twenty-four men in five generations. circa 1550-1580 Unidentified Genealogy of the descendents of Nezahualcóyotl | Genealogía de los descendientes de Nezahualcóyotl 2020-03-13T14:17:10+00:00 llilasbenson Ollintzin ichpuch = Ollin ("movement") tzin ("revered") ichpoch ("young woman"), appears in the LoC's The Codex Quetzalecatzin (https://www.loc.gov/resource/g4701g.ct009133/) 2020-10-27T19:41:58+00:00 llilasbenson clay pot 2020-10-27T21:26:42+00:00 llilasbenson Source: https://aztecglyphs.uoregon.edu/content/comitl; https://nahuatl.uoregon.edu/content/coatl 2020-10-27T21:26:42+00:00 llilasbenson coat(l) ["snake, serpent"] + comi(tl) ["clay pot"] 2020-10-27T22:47:06+00:00 llilasbenson Shield with feathers 2020-10-27T22:24:09+00:00 llilasbenson stone 2020-10-27T22:24:09+00:00 llilasbenson tetl ["stone"] + tzinco ["revered"] 2020-08-10T14:21:54+00:00 llilasbenson Leader 2020-03-13T14:51:00+00:00 llilasbenson Tlatoani ("ruler") Nezahual () coyo ("coyote") tzin ("revered") 2019-11-10T19:29:08+00:00 llilasbenson Nezahualcóyotl (April 28, 1402 – June 4, 1472) 2019-11-12T14:04:13+00:00 llilasbenson Castro, Luis de 2020-03-13T16:21:07+00:00 llilasbenson Ytzapuicpaltzin 2020-03-13T17:32:12+00:00 llilasbenson Grown daughter of Tlacateotzin, or Tlacateotl, was the second Tlatoani of the Aztec city of Tlatelolco from 1417 until his death in 1426 or 1427/8 "pudo ser el gobernante de Tlatelolco (1418-1428)" 2020-03-13T14:38:40+00:00 llilasbenson "Women's birth order names seem to relate from beliefs about female deities or goddesses linked to Tlazolteotl (also known as Ixcuina), who loved luxury and was lustful.
