Descriptions:
n the year Ce Tecpatl (ca. 1168) an omen from the god Huitzilopochtli led the people of Aztlan away from their ancestral home.
Sailing to unknown lands, these pilgrims now follow the will of their lord, his promise of glory and the foundation of a city in his name.
The Age of the Aztec begins.
