Registro de tributos
Artista: Anónimo tlacuilo mexica (Códice Mendoza)
Siglo XVI · México
Colección: Códice Mendoza
This fragment from the Codex Mendoza, with its detailed handwriting and faint circular sketches at the bottom, exemplifies the administrative and tribute records of the Aztec Empire. The early colonial-style calligraphy lists quantities and types of goods, likely for fiscal or census purposes. The presence of such records underscores the organization and tributary system of Mexica society, preserved through colonial documentation.
