Attestations from sources in English: 

"Cihuatipixque: capitana" = women in charge of people, [i.e.] female captains. These are found in seventeenth-century cofradía records, whereas sixteenth-century records suggest that there were no women in cofradía leadership roles. "Spiritual mothers" were mandated for new officer positions in 1631 in Tula, and the numbers of women with formal responsibilities over cofradías continued to grow outside of Tula, too.
