	Chimalpopoca
		Chimalpopoca was the third tlatoani ("the One Who Speaks", or Aztec 'emperor').
		During his reign Chimalpopoca undertook several construction projects in Tenochtitlán, including a causeway spanned by wooden bridges that connected the city to Tlacopan on the western shore of Lake Texcoco, and the construction of a new wooden aqueduct between Chapultepec and Tenochtitlán to supply the city with fresh water.
		In the ensuing intrigues and struggles, Chimalpopoca, who had allied with Tayatzin, was assassinated.

	ARTEHISTORIA - Historia de España - Ficha Chimalpopoca
		Hijo de Huitzilihuitl y nieto de Tezozómoc, poderoso señor de Azcapotzalco, Chimalpopoca ("escudo humeante") fue elegido siendo aun un niño de 11 o 12 años.
		Su elección obedecía a su vinculación familiar con Tezozómoc, lo que sin duda podría reportar beneficios para los mexica, ya que a la muerte de aquél, ya anciano, quedarían revocadas todas las alianzas que obligaban a los mexica, deseosos de librarse del sometimiento a Azcapotzalco.
		El hermano de éste, Maxtla, señor de Coyoacán, obtendrá sin embargo el poder mediante el asesinato de su padre y sus aliados, entre ellos Chimalpopoca, lo que dará lugar a una guerra en la que se dirimirá, en definitiva, el trono de Azcapotzalco.

	Huemac: The Legendary Fall of Tollan
		Of these 14 sources, and drawing on the libraries of the college consortium and the New York Public Library system, three were able to be found.
		These three sixteenth-century documents are the Annals of Cuauhtitlan and the Legend of the Suns,which are both gathered in a volume called the Codex Chimalpopoca, and the General History of Things in New Spain by Spanish monk Fray Bernandino de Sahagun.
		In fact, I would argue that there are many parallels between Huemac and Oedipus: they are both plagued, beleaguered rulers who don't understand the consequences of their own actions until it's far too late.

		The two Nahuatl texts that comprise the Codex Chimalpopoca are the Annals of Cuauhtitlan and the Legend of the Suns.
		As the translator, John Bierhorst notes that there is no pre Conquest history from the Valley of Mexico that survived, since most of the native books and pictorials are thought to have been burned in 1530 or thereabouts by Spanish missionaries.
