Quinatzin Explained
Quinatzin (full name: Quinatzin Tlaltecatzin) (kinat͡sin t͡ɬaltekat͜sin,) was a King of ancient Texcoco, an Acolhua city-state in Mexico. He was the first known ruler of that city and is also known as Quinatzin II.[2] [3] [4]
It was Quinatzin who transferred the seat of Chichimec power to Texcoco, relegating the city of Tenayuca to a site of secondary importance.[5]
The father of Quinatzin was Tlotzin Pochotl, and a noblewoman called Icpacxochitl.[6]
Quinatzin’s wife was a Princess from Huejotla, Queen Cuauhcihuatzin,[7] mother of his successor Techotlalatzin.[8] Her grandson was Ixtlilxochitl I.[9]
Quinatzin’s mother-in-law was called Tomiyauh.[10] [11] [12]
