Codex Chimalpahin: Society and Politics in Mexico Tenochtitlan, Tlatelolco, Texoco, Culhuacan, and Other Nahua Altepetl in Central Mexico

by Domingo de San Anton Munon Chimalpahin Quauhtlehuanitzin and Domingo Francisco de San Antón Muñón Chimalpahin Cuauhtlehuanitzin

The Codex Chimalpahin, which consists of more than one thousand pages of Nahuatl and Spanish texts, is a life history of the only Nahua about whom we have much knowledge. It also affords a firsthand indigenous perspective on the Nahua past, present, and future in a changing colonial milieu. Moreover, Chimalpahin's sources, a rich variety of ancient and contemporary records, give voice to a culture long thought to be silent and vanquished.
