Around 1542, descendants of the Aztec rulers of Mexico created accounts of the pre-Hispanic history of the city of Tetzcoco, Mexico. 'The Codex Xolotl', 'The Quinatzin Map', and 'The Tlohtzin Map' appear to retain and emphasize pre-Hispanic content and pre-Hispanic form. This title offers an analysis of the manuscripts.
