Summary[edit]

Description
English: Folio 1v from the w:en:Codex Mendoza. Second and last page of the Spanish introduction, with an explanatory diagram of the dating system: each of the thirteen blue squares represents one year, and incorporates one of four symbols -- rabbit, reed, flint knife or house -- and its number as represented by one to thirteen dots. Combined, these provide a cycle of 52 distinct year-names: One Rabbit, Two Reed, Three Flint Knife, Four House, Five Rabbit, Six Reed, etc. The explanatory writing in red above is in the Nahuatl language, with a mistake after Seven Flint Knife; a more correct version in Spanish is written below. Shelfmark: MS. Arch. Selden. A. 1
