PBELIMINAEY NOTICE. 
 
 Concerning the origin and history of the manuscript which is here reproduced, 
 before it came into the possession of the well-known Americanist Brasseur de 
 Bourbourg (in whose " Bibliotheque Mexico-Guat6malienne " it is described on 
 P- 95)) we know positively nothing. From the matter which it contains, the 
 character of the writing, and the nature of the material on which the pictures are 
 drawn, we can, however, form a fairly safe conjecture, that our "Picture-Chronicle" 
 was written towards 1530 for the prince Yxtlilxochitl of Tezcuco, called by some 
 writers "Yxtlilxochitl II", or "Don Fernando Cortes Yxtlilxochitl, last king of 
 Acolhuacan." His collection of painted and written records passed into the 
 possession of his great-grandson Don Fernando de Alva Yxtlilxochitl, the historian, 
 whose Relaciones have been printed by Kingsborough. At the death of the latter, 
 they were acquired by the celebrated Jesuit writer Don Carlos Siguenza,. whose 
 library of Mexican MSS. was probably superior to any other that has been formed 
 since. Siguenza died in 1700, leaving his MSS. to the Jesuit College of SS. Peter 
 and Paul in Mexico ; before 1750 many had been alienated or lost ; and after the 
 Revolution most of them disappeared. We suspect that our Mexican Picture- 
 Chronicle belonged successively to the two Yxtlilxochitls, and to Siguenza, before it 
 came into the hands of Brasseur, of Pinart, and of the present owner. 
 
 The popular idea with regard to Mexican Antiquities and the Aztec monarchy 
 is, that Cortes with a few hundred Spaniards landed on the coast, marched inland, 
 and conquered an immense homogeneous empire by means of his guns and his 
 horses. It is known to all the world that the difficulties were enormous, and that 
 Cortes revealed the highest qualities of genius in overcoming them ; but few people 
 take into account the extraordinary chances which were thrown in the conqueror's 
 way. Without the aid of the Tlaxcalans in his first campaign, which after all ended 
 in frustration; and without Yxtlilxochitl's unrivalled support in the second campaign, 
 Cortes would assuredly have perished in his enterprise. — During a couple of 
 centuries the great cities of Tezcuco, Azcaputzalco, and Mexico occupied different 
 points on the great lake of Anahuac, and though not far apart from one another, 
 each was the capital of a kingdom containing many large cities besides. Beyond 
 
those three, there were other minor states, all of which have been usually looked 
 upon as part of the ' Empire of Mexico. There was no fixed supremacy at any 
 of the centres; but the most powerful, or influential, or respected, monarch 
 was chosen to hold imperial rank above his royal fellows. The system resembled 
 somewhat that of the Emperor and the Electors in mediaeval Europe; but the 
 shifting of the imperial capital from one city to another in turn was a fruitful source 
 of jealousy and war. The monarchy of Aculhuacan, in which Tezcuco was the 
 chief city, was the most highly civilized of all the states, and its rulers were the 
 direct descendants of the ancient Chichimeca dynasty which had ruled throughout 
 all the lands around the lake. By them the Aztec immigrants-were allowed to settle 
 in the vale of Anahuac, and to found at the beginning of the fourteenth century the 
 city afterwards called Mexico. Twenty or thirty years later, the Mexicans chose 
 Acamapitzin for their first king. At the same time the Chichimeca Emperor, 
 resident in Aculhuacan, was Techotlalatzin, whose power as supreme overlord was 
 acknowledged by all the princes around. The Mexicans lent him considerable aid 
 in suppressing a rebellion of one of his feudatories, and heightened by that very 
 action the importance of their little kingdom. The marriage of the second king of 
 Mexico with a daughter of the king of Azcaputzalco was an event which led to 
 many changes. 
 
 The Azcaputzalcan or Tepanec king took advantage of the death of the 
 paramount Chichimeca in 1406 to invade the territories of young Ixtlilxochitl (I). 
 Although the imperial dignity was accorded without hesitation to the latter by all 
 the electors or feudatories except the Azcaputzalcan Tezozomoc, he was driven 
 into sore straits, and perished miserably for want of loyal support. For 
 twenty years, Tezozomoc and his son Maxtla exercised tyrannic rule from 
 Azcaputzalco over the chief places of the Aculhuan dominion, while the 
 Mexican kingdom grew apace, and enlarged itself by annexing outer pro- 
 vinces of the realm. The young heir Nezahualcoyotl wandered as an 
 outlaw for years before he recovered his kingdom in 1426. During a 
 glorious reign of over forty years, he restored the prosperity and influence 
 of Aculhuacan; but although Tezcuco became once more a centre of art and 
 culture, and the king himself achieved distinction of a high order as a soldier a 
 lawgiver, and a poet ( — his songs being the most precious remains of Nahuatl 
 literature) — Mexico retained the power it had won during his father's adversity. 
 Ixtlilxochitl had married the sister of Montezuma I, who was consequently the 
 uncle of Nezahualcoyotl. The two kingdoms were thus brought into close relations 
 and an equality of rank established, in which the third monarchy of the empire was 
 also associated by the marriage of Nezahualcoyotl with the daughter of the Tepanec 
 king, whose metropolis was now Tlacupan. Besides these three kingdoms, with their 
 capitals close together in the vale of Anahuac, there were other kingdoms on the 
 west and north which were gradually annexed by Mexico; and the state of 
 
Tlaxcala, a warlike oligarchy lying east of Tezcuco, which the Mexicans sought 
 vainly to subdue, and which long afterwards allied itself with Cortes through hatred 
 of -the Aztec emperor. In spite of frequent dissensions, those states grew in wealth, 
 population, and architectural grandeur. It is believed that Tezcuco contained 
 300,000 inhabitants, Mexico even more, and the city of Tlaxcala, although the 
 centre of a small dominion, is said to have been enormously populous. When 
 Nezahualpilli succeeded his father Nezahualcoyotl in 1470, Tezcuco was at its 
 highest level in civilization and splendour, although the political power of Aculhuacan 
 was on the wane, and the star of Mexico in the ascendant. Montezuma I had 
 been followed by Axacayatl, during whose reign, and that of his two successors, 
 the Aztec empire was continually enlarged ; but as Nezahualpilli was brother-in-law 
 to all three of them, his wise and learned character enabled him to exercise a moral 
 influence which may have consoled him for the gradual supersession of the old 
 primacy of Aculhuacan. He was a kind of Solomon, regarded as the wisest of 
 counsellors, distinguished as an astrologer and soothsayer, and endowed with all 
 the learning of his time and country. Montezuma II, who was his nephew through 
 marriage, ascended the Aztec throne in 1502, and frequently sought advice from 
 Nezahualpilli, who is said to have predicted, in 15 11, the impending ruin of the 
 empire by a foreign invasion. In 1516 the wise King died in Tezcuco, leaving 
 jealousies among his sons, and the germs of a civil war, which soon broke out when 
 Cacamatzin was placed on the throne by the help of his cousin Montezuma. The 
 fiery prince Ixtlilxochitl (II) made war upon his brother, and the result of the 
 struggle was the division of Aculhuacan between them, Tezcuco and the south falling 
 to the titular sovereign Cacamatzin. The animosity of Ixtlilxochitl against his 
 brother was less strong than his hatred for the Mexican Emperor, who had preferred 
 his brother to himself, and he probably heard without regret of the audacious entry 
 of the Spaniards and Tlaxcalans into Mexico in 1519. The fatal consequences of 
 his resentment were visible in 1520 when Cortes, in making his second advance 
 upon Mexico (after the death of Montezuma and the evacuation of the capital by 
 the Spaniards) was joined by Ixtlilxochitl with fifty thousand men. It is hardly 
 questionable that without the powerful aid of that prince the reconquest of 
 Mexico and the downfall of Guatimozin would not have been achieved ; and Cortes 
 showed his gratitude by proclaiming him King in Tezcuco in 1521. It was a poor 
 reward, for although Ixtlilxochitl retained the rank and title for eight years, he lost 
 the respect of his kinsmen, and the Spaniards gradually withdrew from him all but 
 the semblance of royalty. He had been baptized as Don Fernando Cortes 
 Pimentel, and he forced Christianity upon all the members of his family, helping 
 the foreigners to destroy the old temples and idols of the land. He patronized and 
 cherished the educational efforts of the three Franciscan monks who settled in 
 Tezcuco in 1523, beginning at once to learn and to teach. Early in 1524, Peter of 
 Ghent was instructing a number of the aristocratic youth of Tezcuco to write their 
 
own language in Roman characters, although interfering little with the old super- 
 stitions of the people. Later in the same year Martin of Valencia and a number 
 of other Franciscans arrived, and the process of education was so well advanced 
 that a large proportion of the younger generation in Tezcuco was able to read and 
 write Nahuatl in Roman letters before Zumarraga ordered the destruction of all 
 the old MSS. and paintings that he could collect. Thus it is known that, even 
 after that act of barbarism, many of the hieroglyphic records of the days before the 
 conquest were reproduced in a more readable form by youthful writers who took 
 their texts orally from the lips of the unforgetting elders of their nation. 
 
 The MS. now reproduced is evidently one of those to which we have referred, 
 and its pictures are clearly indicative of a Tezcucan origin. The figures, which 
 betray the suggestions of European teaching in design, are all those of personages 
 of the Chichimecan dynasty, or of their relatives or descendants, and the object of 
 the writer was to celebrate the lineage of Ixtlilxochitl II. We may assume that 
 the prince was still alive when the work was done. He married the Mexican 
 princess Papantzin in 1526 and died in 1529. It was probably in the interval that 
 some of his picture-records were renewed in the same fashion as this MS., and that 
 his library thus won the eulogy bestowed upon it by his great grandson the historian 
 who inherited many of them. The connexion with Cempoallan is not easy to 
 understand. That " traitor-town," as a modern Mexican calls it, was a well-built 
 city near the coast, not far from the site of the present Vera Cruz, and was the 
 first place in the empire to give adhesion to Cortes. It was the capital of the 
 Totonecas who had originally been subject to the Chichimeca-Emperors of 
 Aculhuacan, but acknowledged allegiance to Mexico and not Tezcuco at the time 
 of the conquest. Ixtlilxochitl may have wished to- claim an ancient right in 
 Cempoallan. 
 
 N.B. — Although the subject of the first illustration is, on the plate itself, asserted to be 
 the Emperor Ixtlilxochitl I, it seems rather to be (as described in the following List of 
 Contents) a representation of Ixtlilxochitl II, while ruling in the northern half of 
 Aculhuacan, after the arrangement with his brother.
