EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical moment in the "War against the peoples of the north" led by Yacanex, capturing the dramatic death of Chiconquauthli, chief Acolhua of Xolotl. The image is based on an interpretation from indigenous columnist Don Fernando de Alva Ixtlilxochitl's manuscript titled "History of the descendants of the ruler Xolotl to Nezahualcoyotl (1068-1427) - Texcoco" specifically Plate 3. The artwork also includes a map depicting the Chichimeque nation, spanning from Emperor Amacui Xolotl to Nezahualcoyotl (963-1428), known as Codex Xolotl. This visual representation offers valuable insights into this ancient civilization and their territorial expansion. Created by an unknown artist during the 16th century, this print is housed in Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. It provides viewers with a glimpse into Mesoamerican history and culture, shedding light on significant events that shaped societies during that era. Through its intricate details and vivid colors, this piece invites us to reflect upon past conflicts and power struggles while appreciating indigenous perspectives preserved through historical manuscripts. As we explore this photograph further, we are reminded of our shared human experiences across time and space.
