Description
The
plates
75
-
80
that
Chavero
depicted
refer
to the
1524
expedition
of
Alvarado
to
Guatemala
.
Alvarado
left
Mexico
City
in
mid-December
1523
after
aiding
Cortes
in the
Panuco
expedition
, and
traveled
via
Oaxaca
and the
Soconusco
area
to the
Maya
areas
in
Guatemala
, to
which
campaign
these
plates
refer
.
Thus
,
temporally
, these
final
plates
are
out
of
order
since
they
refer
to an
earlier
campaign
.
Perhaps
the
simplest
explanation
is
that the
scribe(s)
who
prepared
the
original
lienzo
had
depicted
the
conquest
of
Mexico
, the
Metztitlan
and
Panuco
expeditions
, and then the
expeditions
of
Guzman
,
which
fall
in
correct
chronological
order
.
However
,
since
the
document
was
prepared
to
support
Tlaxcalan
claims
for
rewards
in
assisting
the
Spaniards
, then as a
sort
of
addendum
the
campaign
under
Alvarado
was
added
,
though
not in its
proper
chronological
order
,
which
was the
normal
indigenous
pattern
.
Thus
,
plates
76
-
87
,
which
concern
1524
, should
come
just
before
plates
52-75
,
which
pertain
to
1530-31
.
Plate
76
.
Which
concerns
the
battle
of
Tzapotitlan
,
land
of the
zapotes
(
a
middle
American
food
plant)
, on
17
February
1524
. This
town
is
called
locally
Xetulul
and this was the
first
major
battle
of the
expedition
under
Pedro
de
Alvarado
,
called
Tonatiuh
,
which
was to
subjugate
the
various
Maya
strongholds
in
Guatemala
.
Note
that the
indigenous
warriors
are
depicted
with
Spanish
weapons
in this
plate
