Cuacuauhtzin (c. 1410–1443) was an Aztec poet, composing in the Nahuatl language, and lord of Tepechpan.
Born around the year 1410, Cuacuauhtzin became lord when his father, Tencoyotzin died at a young age.
The spoils from these exploits increased the prosperity of his town and were used to decorate his palace more lavishly.
[1] After giving a large gift to an important Mexica named Temictzin, Cuacuauhtzin married that man's daughter, Azcalxóchitzin, in the year 12-Flint (1440).
After their marriage, Nezahualcoyotl, tlatoani of Texcoco, fell in love with Azcalxóchitzin and sent Cuacuauhtzin to the war against Tlaxcala.
