What is the Codex Mendoza? Around 1541, the first viceroy [leader] of New Spain, Antonio de Mendoza, created a codex to record information about the Aztec empire. The artist(s) of the Codex were indigenous [native]. The images were often annotated in Spanish by a priest that spoke Nahuatl, the language spoken by groups within the Aztec Empire. Mendoza intended to send the Codex to the Spanish King, Emperor Charles V of Spain. It never made it to Spain because French pirates acquired the Codex and it ended up in France.

SOURCE B: Frontispiece (an illustration facing the title page of a book) of Codex Mendoza: Description by Dr. Lauren Kilroy-Ewbank:

These are two scenes of military conquest. The artist emphasizes the military power of the Aztecs by showing two

soldiers in hierarchic scale: they physically tower over the two men they defeat. The Aztec warriors are also identified

by their shields and their weapons (called macana). The defeated men come from two different locations, both

identified with place glyphs as Colhuacan and Tenayuca, both located around Lake Texcoco...This scene of conquest

alludes to early Aztec military victories, which aided them in building their power even prior to their first official tlatoani

[king] came to power.
