		López Austin's ostensible aim is to disentangle the concepts of Tamoanchan and Tlalocan, but he offers his readers much more by presenting a comprehensive synthesis of Nahua culture based on his theory of gender opposition and the circulation of divine essences.
		Tlalocan is the destination of those who died a water-related death, and scholars have offered many interpretations of its relationship to Tamoanchan.
		On the basis of what he learned from reading contemporary ethnographies, López Austin concludes that: "Tamoanchan and Tlalocan, misty places, are fundamental parts of a cosmic process of circulation of the divine forces that are necessary for the movement and continuity of beings in the world of humans" (p.

		Seeing the valley of Mexico as Tlalocan (the place of Tlaloc) and characterizing it as an "eating landscape" illustrates an Aztec mode of occupying land.
		Indigenous strategies of occupying land in Mexico focused on ceremonies which addressed the material conditions of life, while colonial strategies of occupying land centered around books and other written materials such as Biblical and classical texts, ethnographies, and legal documents.
		These distinctive ways of occupying Tlalocan, concludes Arnold, had dramatic consequences for the formation of the Americas.
