  • "Comments on the Historicity of Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl, Tollan, and the Toltecs" by Michael E
    31 COMMENTARY "Comments on the Historicity of Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl, Tollan, and the Toltecs" by Michael E. Smith University at Albany, State University of New York Can we believe Aztec historical accounts about Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl, Tollan, and other Toltec phenomena? The fascinating and important recent exchange in the Nahua Newsletter between H. B. Nicholson and Michel Graulich focused on this question. Stimulated partly by this debate and partly by a recent invitation to contribute an essay to an edited volume on Tula and Chichén Itzá (Smith n.d.), I have taken a new look at Aztec and Maya native historical traditions within the context of comparative oral histories from around the world. This exercise suggests that conquest-period native historical accounts are unlikely to preserve reliable information about events from the Early Postclassic period. Surviving accounts of the Toltecs, the Itzas (prior to Mayapan), Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl, Tula, and Chichén Itzá all belong more to the realm of myth than history. In the spirit of encouraging discussion and debate, I offer a summary here of my views on early Aztec native history; a more complete version of which, including discussion of the Maya Chilam Balam accounts, will be published in Smith (n.d.). I have long thought that Mesoamericanists have been far too credulous in their acceptance of native historical sources; this is an example of what historian David Fischer (1970:58-61) calls "the fallacy of misplaced literalism." Aztec native history was an oral genre that employed painted books as mnemonic devices to aid the historian or scribe in their recitation (Calnek 1978; Nicholson 1971).

  • LOS REYES DE TOLLAN Y COLHUACAN·
    LOS REYES DE TOLLAN y COLHUACAN· HANNSJ. PREM La historia del centro de México se pierde algunos siglos antes de la conquista española en el crepúsculo entre historia, leyendas y mitos. Exactamente en este momento transitorio se sitúa lo que las fuentes nos cuentan sobre la ciudad de Tollan, sus reyes, su esplendor y su caída. A pesar de lo poco que se conoce sobre el lugar histórico (no el escenario mítico) de Tollan, éste ocupa un papel central en el desarro­ llo de la configuración histórica del centro de México que existía en el momento de la conquista española, como lo han destacado los investi­ gadores eminentes Wigberto Jiménez Moreno y Paul Kirchhoffy, más tarde, Nigel Davies. Los acontecimientos acaecidos en Tollan1 o, mejor dicho, el significado atribuido a ellos en tiempos posteriores, no tienen importancia decisiva para la historia sólo del área adyacente, especial­ mente del Valle de México, sino también para regiones mesoamericanas más lejanas, como para el mejor entendimiento de la época posclásica temprana en la región Maya, fundamentalmente la de las tierras bajas. Las fuentes procedentes del Valle de México y las regiones vecinas ponen de manifiesto que casi cada "grupo étnico" tenía ciertas relacio­ nes, a veces bastante efímeras, con Tollan. Pero solamente Colhuacan, una ciudad pequeña de poca importancia política al momento de la Conquista española, reclamaba de manera comprensible y al parecer más o menos plausible una conexión dinástica con Tollan. Sin embargo, con una única excepción2 las fuentes disponibles no proceden de Col­ huacan misma sino que son referencias desde el punto de vista de Tenoch­ * Una versión española anterior fue preparada con la ayuda de Nydia Heber.

The present article proposes that our modern Western concept of borders and political boundaries was foreign to ancient Mexican societies and to Aztec-era polities in general. Consequently, the article aims to add a novel angle to our understanding of the notions of space, territoriality, and limits in the indigenous worldview in central Mexico during preconquest times, and their repercussions for the internal social and political relations that evolved within the Nahua-Acolhua ethnic states (altepetl). Furthermore, taking its cue from the Corpus Xolotl, the article reconsiders the validity of ethnic entities and polities in ancient Mexico and claims that many of these polities were ethnic and territorial amalgams, in which components of ethnic outsiders formed internal enclaves and powerbases. I argue that in ancient Mexico one is able to observe yet another kind of conceptualization of borders/ frontiers: “enclosures with inclusion,” which served as the indigenous concept of porous and inclusive boundaries, well up to the era of the formation of the so-called Triple Alliance, and beyond.

The Aztec ruling dynasty continued to govern the indigenous polity of San Juan Tenochtitlan, a division of the Spanish capital of Mexico City, but the subsequent indigenous rulers were mostly puppets installed by the Spanish. MacLeod, Murdo The main deities worshipped by the Aztecs were Tlaloc , a rain and storm deity , Huitzilopochtli a solar and martial deity and the tutelary deity of the Mexica tribe, Quetzalcoatl , a wind , sky and star deity and cultural hero, Tezcatlipoca , a deity of the night, magic, prophecy and fate.

Aztec I is characterized by floral designs and day- name glyphs; Aztec II is characterized by a stylized grass design above calligraphic designs such as s-curves or loops; Aztec III is characterized by very simple line designs; Aztec four continues some pre-Columbian designs but adds European influenced floral designs. For example, the southern peripheral zones of Xoconochco were not in immediate contact with the central part of the empire. These feathers were obtained through trade and tribute. The Cihuacoatl was always a close relative of the Huey tlatoani; Tlacaelel , for example, was the brother of Moctezuma I.
