[edit]DescriptionBodl Arch.Selden.A.2 roll113E frame5.jpg |
English: Page 4 from the Codex Selden (also known as 'Codex Añute'). Manuscript on coated (deer?) skin. Shelfmark: MS. Arch. Selden. A. 2. Starting at bottom (continuation of p. 3). Band I. More places which M 10 Reed may have visited. From left to right: Temple where the Alligator is born, ruled by M 2 Rabbit 'Grey Eagle' ; Temple of the Jawbone and the Red Century Plant, ruled by M 10 Grass 'Stone Shield'; Place of Man who points to the Sky, ruled by M 5 Serpent and M 4 House. Band II (from right to left). Hill of the White Alligator Skin, ruled by M 10 Reed (not same as protagonist of this story) and M 1 Vulture; Plcae of the Tlaltecuhtli, ruled by M 7 Tiger and F 5 Rain; Hill of the Seated Little Man, whose ruler was M 10 Movement 'Eagle with Flints'; the Place of the Tiger-pelted Breast Plate, ruled by M 10 Dog and M 10 Monkey. Band III (from left to right). More places which M 10 Reed may have visited. Hill of the Rabbit and the Copper Axe, whose lord was M 2 Wind 'Lion'; Teozacoalco, or town with the wall bent by a small man (name of the ruler not given); Town with the Jawbone and the Eagle Wings (name of ruler not given). After listing the towns he visited, the manuscript tells us that M 10 reed 'Eagle Fire' becomes the lord of the Hill of the Plant (?) and Town of the Half-Bow, on the day 9 House of the year 8 Flint (915). Band IV (right to left). Later, but with no mention of date, M 10 Reed becomes the lord of the Hill of the Eagle Wings (this might be the same place, but with a slightly different name, of which we said the ruler was not named in band III). In front of him, mount of dirt on which two boards have been placed. In the following year, on the day 7 Eagle of the year 9 House (917), M 10 Reed, dressed as a priest in the whote xicolli with black spots and a yetecomatl on his back, deposits a Xolotl bundle in the temple and makes an offering of copal inside the enclosure with ramparts. Through this ritual, he becomes the first king of the Belching Mountain. |
