Calmecac

The Calmecac ("the house of the lineage", ) was a school for the sons of Aztec nobility (''pīpiltin'' ) in the Late Postclassic period of Mesoamerican history, where they would receive rigorous religious and military training. The two main primary sources for information on the ''calmecac'' and ''telpochcalli'' are in Bernardino de Sahagún's Florentine Codex of the ''General History of the Things of New Spain'' (Books III, VI, and VIII) and part 3 of the Codex Mendoza.〔Edward Calneck, "The Calmecac and Telpochcalli in Pre-Conquest Tenochtitlan," in ''The Work of Bernardino de Sahagún: Pioneer Ethnographer of Sixteenth-Century Aztec Mexico'', J. Jorge Klor de Alva et al., eds. Albany: SUNY Albany Institute for Mesoamerican Studies 1988, p. 170.〕 Although the calmecac has been characterized as for elites only, Sahagun's account says that at times commoners, macehualtin were assigned to the calmecac as well and trained for the priesthood.〔Edward Calneck, "The Calmecac and Telpochcalli" p. 169.〕〔Hassig (1988), p.34.〕 The Tēlpochcalli ( "house of youth") was where mostly commoners and some noble youths received military training, but would have been precluded from the higher ranks of power.〔Calnek, "Calmecac and Telpochcalli", p. 169.〕 Codex Mendoza's account of the calmecac emphasizes the possibilities of upward mobility for young commoner men, (''macehualtin''), educated in the telpochcalli. The placement of a noble youth in the telpochcalli might have been by lesser wives' or concubines' sons or younger sons, perhaps of commoner status, so that the boys did not have to compete with noble youths in the calmecac.〔Calnek, "Calmecac and Telpochcalli", p. 176.〕 Codex Mendoza's account largely ignores class distinctions between the two institutions.〔Calnek, "Calmecac and Telpochcalli", p. 177.〕
The calmecac of the Aztec capital, Tenochtitlan, was located in the ceremonial center of the city and it was dedicated to Quetzalcoatl.〔Hassig (1988), p.34.〕
The ''calmecac'' was the students' home for the duration of their training, and they would enter the school as young as five to seven years of age. The students received instruction in songs, rituals, reading and writing, the calendar (''tōnalpōhualli'' ) and all the basic training which was also taught in the telpochcalli.
Students commenced formal military training around age fifteen.〔Hassig (1988), p.35.〕
Promising sons of nobles would be trained especially by the military orders of the Jaguar warriors (''ōcēlōmeh'' ) or Eagle warriors (''cuāuhtin'' ) in their quarters, the ''cuāuhcalli'' ().〔Hassig (1988), p.36.〕
