This man was Miccacalcatl Tlaltetecuintzin Chichimeca teuhctli, ruler of Tequanipan Amaquemecan Chalco at the time of contact with Europeans. His son was don Domingo Ixteocalletzin. Miccacalcatl claimed as his great grandfather the ruler Huitzilihuitl (all according to Chimalpahin). These genealogies link pre-contact with Spanish colonial times.
