This is a photo of a monument in Mexico, identified by ID
Detail of folio 52r of one of the two manuscripts known as the Códices Matritenses, deposited at the Royal Academy of History in Madrid, Spain. The manuscripts contain one of the works of the Spanish Franciscan friar Bernardino de Sahagún, who spent much of his life living in Mexico to conduct research on the culture of the indigenous peoples in the 16th century, after they got conquered by the Spanish. This work, entitled Universal History of the Things of New Spain (Historia Universal de las cosas de la Nueva España) and also known as the Primeros Memoriales, was written in Nahuatl (Mexican language) and Spanish, and it contains illustrations made by indigenous artists in the manner of their ancestors. This page shows the history of the royal garments worn by the kings of the nation of Texcoco in the pre-Hispanic period, starting with lord Tlaltecatzin (at the top) and ending with king Nezahualpilli. Other lords are depicted in other pages of the manuscript. Notice that the first king to sit on a throne of woven reeds with backrest (tepotzoicpalli) is Nezahualcoyotl, who is also the first to wear a turquoise nose ornament, diadem (xiuhuitzolli) and tilma, setting him apart from his Chichimec predecessors (wearing animal hides) and distinguishing him as a Toltec lord.
