Tlilpotonqui or Tlilpotoncatzin (died in the year 11 Reed/1503) was the second ''cihuacoatl'' ("president") of Mexico-Tenochtitlan. Tlilpotoncatzin was the second son of Tlacaelel and Maquiztzin. His father was a son of the second ''tlatoani'' ("ruler" or "king") of Tenochtitlan, Huitzilihuitl. While Tlacaelel never became ''tlatoani'' himself, as ''cihuacoatl'' he played a significant role in the creation of the Aztec empire. His mother was the daughter of Huehue Quetzalmacatzin, king of Itztlacozauhcan in Amaquemecan Chalco.〔Chimalpahin (1997): vol. 1, pp. 49, 141–143.〕 Tlilpotoncatzin succeeded his father as ''cihuacoatl'' upon his death in the year 8 Reed (1487).〔Chimalpahin (1997): vol. 1, p. 53; vol. 2, p. 35.〕 According to the ''Crónica mexicayotl'' of Fernando Alvarado Tezozomoc, composed around 1598, Tlilpotoncatzin was a great, brave warrior. In battle he wore the ''quetzalpatzactli'', a crest of quetzal feathers.〔Chimalpahin (1997): vol. 1, p. 145.〕 Tlilpotoncatzin took at least two wives, both from Amaquemecan: Xiuhtoztzin, the daughter of Yaopaintzin, ''quauhtlatoani'' of Tequanipan Huixtoco; and Quauhtlamiyahualtzin, a noblewoman from Acxotlan Cihuateopan.〔Chimalpahin (1997): vol. 1., p. 153.〕 He fathered fourteen children, eleven males and three females.〔Chimalpahin (1997): vol. 1, p. 143.〕 A son by Xiuhtoztzin, Miccacalcatl Tlatletecuintzin, was installed as the ruler of Tequanipan;〔Chimalpahin (1997): vol. 1, p. 157; vol. 2, p. 89.〕 and one of his daughters, Tzihuacxochitzin II, married Moctezuma II, and gave birth to Leonor Moctezuma and María Moctezuma.〔Chimalpahin (1997): vol. 1, pp. 55, 143, 163; vol. 2., p. 109.〕 Tlilpotoncatzin died in the year 11 Reed (1503).〔Chimalpahin (1997): vol. 1, p. 157; vol. 2, p. 37.〕 He was succeeded by his nephew Tlacaelel II, the son of his elder brother Cacamatzin.〔Chimalpahin (1997): vol. 1, p. 55; vol. 2, p. 37.〕 ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tlilpotoncatzin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
