She was a daughter of Epcoatzin, a great lord of Tlatelolco. And Ahuitzotzin and Tecapantzin begot and thence was born only one [son], Quauhtemoctzin, ruler of Tenochtitlan and Tlatelolco. The Spaniards imprisoned him when the Mexica Tenochca state was destroyed on the feast day of St. Hippolytus Martyr, 13 August 1521. And later he died in Huey Mollan; there [the Spaniards] hanged both him and don Pedro Tetlepanquetzatzin, ruler of Tlacopan. Don Hernando Cortéz, Marquéz del Valle, sentenced them on the basis of a lying statement when he took all the rulers there. This account was taken from a painting that don Alonso Jimenéz, a resident of Culhuacan, left.

The first was named Tiçocic. The second was named Ahuitzotl. The third was named Axayaca; he was the youngest, but he was the first to be ruler, and afterward his aforenamed elder brothers Tiçocic and Ahuitzotl were rulers.

El mito de Ahuizotl. "En tiempos remotos Xaltocan era gobernado por un rey-nahual que asustaba a la gente por transformarse en distintos animales. Sus súbditos lo hicieron huir y se llevó toda la flora y fauna y hoy día Xaltocan ha perdido su riqueza natural." (Escuchado en Xaltocan, Méx., s. XX. Según Barrios, 1950, 72–82.)

Ahuitzotzin: El legendario ahuitzotl, o ahuizote, de fantásticos caracteres. Según Hernández "es de colores negro y negruzco, de tamaño de perro de Malta, que puede considerarse una especie de nutria"; este animal "se encuentra en los ríos de aguas dulces que corren por regiones cálidas". En el Florentino el símbolo del agua está bajo el animal.
