drew out the mast of Vehilobos (sic), and gave it to Vingualti, to 
carry it with the greatest veneration on their journey, and they came 
to Tlemaco, which is near to Tula, and raised a temple to Vehilogos (sic), 
and remained there twelve years, and these twelve years being passed, 
they departed thence and took up the mast of Vehilogos, and gave it to 
Cagigi to carry. And after all this had happened, they came to Thitlala- 
quia, © well known town, and it was on the borders of Tula, where they 
rested two years and built a temple to Vehilogos ; and after these two 
years the Mexicans came to the town of Tula itself, which in these days 
was peopled with its aborigines, who were the Chichimecas, and when 
they came to the said town they erected a temple to Vehilogos, and 
placed before’ it the “andelabras that are now in use, in which they 
placed cepal and other savory things; and as soon as the Mexicans 
had come Vehilogos appeared to the inhabitants of the country in a 
black form, and they heard Vehilogos wailing beneath the earth, and 
they asked wherefore the god of the Mexicans was weeping below the 
ground, and the answer because every inhabitant of Zula was doomed to 
death. Four years later, an old woman, a native of Tula, went about 
giving out flags of paper fastened to rods, and making it manifest to them 
that they should get ready to die, because their time had come ; and pres- 
ently they all cast themselves upon the stone on which the Mexicans were 
wont to offer up their sacrifices, and the one of them who took charge of 
the temple which was in Tula, by name Tequipuyul, who was a stranger 
and a vagabond without employ, and whom they believed to be the devil, 
slew them all; and before the Mexicans erected their temple, that stone 
was a temple to the inhab‘tants of Tula; and so were put to death all the 
inhabitants of Tula, so that not one remained alive, and the Mexicans 
were lords of Tula. 
Departing afterwards from Tula they came to the place where now 
stands the town of Atvtoniltengo, where they remained one year, and 
thence they came to the town of Tecuequiciac where they rested four years ; 
thence they came to the town of Apazco, and from Pazco (sic) to Zumpango, 
where they stayed three years, and as they arrived near the town of (um- 
pango (sic), they encountered one sole Chichimeca, named Tlavizcal Poton- 
gui, who went out to meet the Mexicans, as he saw them coming ; and they 
sacrificed to Vehilogos, god of the Mexicans another Chichemeca, whom they 
had made prisoner in battle, and they placed his lead upon a pole tor 
which reason this town is called Zumpango, which signifies a pole that 
transfixes human heads. Thence after four years they departed and came 
to Tlilac, where they tarried seven years, and leaving there, as they were 
on their road to Clautitlan, they lost one of their women who had been 
captured by the Chichimecas, and taken to Michwacan, and from her were 
born all the dwellers in Michuacan, who before that time were all Chichi- 
mecas, and they pursued their road to Quatitlan, where they were one 
year. Thence they proceeded and come to Heatebeque, where they stayed 
one year, and when they left Cutebeque (sic), they reached Nepopoaleo,
