Thence they traveled onward till they came to a place which they named 
Chicomuatoque,® and they settled there and remained nine years, and 
so here they completed the thirteen years from the time of their departure, 
and when they left there they laid the place waste ; and there was born 
in this place, Tlacuaquin, and Mangamoyagual and Minaqueciguatle, who 
were the two males, and one woman, their chief personages, and here 
was accomplished the thirteenth year of their exodus, and they began 
to reckon the second thirteen. 
When they had departed from Chivomueztoque (sic), they came to a plain, 
which is the spot where at the time dwelt the Chichimecas, whose home 
was in front of Panuco, and here they remained three years, and to this 
valley they gave the name of Cuatlicamat. At the end of the three years 
they went forth and came to a ranche which they called Matlauaoala, 
where they dwelt three years, and erected a temple to Vehilogos, thence 
they came to another ranche, named by them near the one where the 
Otomies lived, the indigines of the land; and here they rested five years, 
and erected another temple to Vehilogos, and here was fulfilled eleven 
years of the second thirteen since their departure, 
From this sojourning place they came to a mountain opposite Tula named 
Joatebeque,”” and when they came the Mugeguales held in great veneration 
the mantas of the five women whom Tezcatlipuca made, and who died the 
day the sun was created, as has been said, and from these mantas the afore- 
said five women came again to life, and wandered in this mountain, doing 
penance, drawing blood from their tongues and ears; and when four 
years of their penance had passed by, one named Quatlique who was a 
virgin, took a small quantity of white feathers and placed them in her 
bosom, from which she conceived without having known man, and there 
was born of her Vehilogos, for a new birth, in addition to his other nativi- 
ties, for he was a god all-powerful, and could do whatever he wished. 
And here came again to life the 400 men whom Tezcutlipuca created, and 
who died before the sun was made, and when they saw the woman was 
pregnant, they sought to burn her, but Vehilogos was born of her fully 
armed, and slew the whole of the 400 men ; and this the feast of his na- 
tivity and the slaughter of the 400 men they celebrate every year, as will 
be narrated in the chapter relating to their festivals ; and before the feast 
there is a great general fast who shall participate, lasting eighty days, 
during which they only eat once a day ; and these 400 men whom Ve/ilo- 
gos slew, the inhabitants of the province of Cuzco” burnt up and took for 
their gods, and reverence them as such down to the present day, and in 
this way they celebrated for the first time the festival of the birth of Vehilo- 
gos and the massacre of the 400 men by him.’ 
When thirty-three years had elapsed since their departure from their 
home, they went forth from Coatebeque and came to Chimaleoque, where 
they remained three years; thence they came to Hnsicow, where they 
dwelt another three years, and built a temple and placed the mast of 
Vehilobos (sic) ; and after the thirty-ninth year from their departure they
