Summary

Description
English: Drawing of (Mesoamerican deity) Chalchiutlicue from (17thC manuscript) Codex Ríos.

Original uploader descriptive text: This drawing of Chalciutlicue accompanies page 17 (verso) which depicts the fourth trecena (or 13-day period). Chalciutlicue is shown with implements of spinning and weaving. The figures swimming in the stream emanating in her dress could be read as offspring or as those being carried away toward death.


The Codex Ríos, also called Codex Vaticanus A, is a painted copy, made before 1689, of a central Mexican manuscript, now lost. The Codex Telleriano-Remensis is thought to be an earlier Mexican copy of the same lost original.
