Tributos de los pueblos de la provincia de Cuauhnahuac
Artista: Anónimo tlacuilo mexica (Códice Mendoza)
Siglo XVI · México
Colección: Códice Mendoza
This page from the Mendoza Codex displays a series of pictorial and narrative glyphs detailing aspects of Mexica life, including places, place names, and possibly historical events or tribute. The style is characteristic of pre-Hispanic and early colonial codex painting, with schematic figures and vibrant colors on maguey paper. The work is an invaluable source for understanding the social, political, and economic organization of the Mexica Empire.
