Xochimazatl encouraging his soldiers during the march towards the Gulf Coast, Late 1491

The year Twelve Reed (1491). Ahuitzotl focused this year’s campaign on the rebellious Gulf coast city states. Their initial target was Chinantlan, located far southeast out of the basin of Mexico. The army had to travel through rugged terrain for days. Halfway through the route, tlatoani’s loyal general Xochimazatl encouraged his soldiers to arrive safely in the friendly city of Huaxtepec before sunset.
