Quinatzin

Quinatzin (full name: Quinatzin Tlaltecatzin) (kinat͡sin t͡ɬaltekat͜sin, modern Nahuatl pronunciationⓘ) was a King of ancient Texcoco, an Acolhua city-state in Mexico.

[2][3][4] It was Quinatzin who transferred the seat of Chichimec power to Texcoco, relegating the city of Tenayuca to a site of secondary importance.

[5] The father of Quinatzin was Tlotzin Pochotl, and a noblewoman called Icpacxochitl.

[6] Quinatzin’s wife was a Princess from Huejotla, Queen Cuauhcihuatzin,[7] mother of his successor Techotlalatzin.
