Summary[edit]

Description
English: Folio 59r from the w:en:Codex Mendoza. Training of Aztec boys and girls from ages seven to ten. The meal-ration remains constant, at one and a half tortillas. (1) The seven-year-old boy is being taught to fish with a net, and the girl is twirling the spindle in the spinning bowl and pulling out the thread. The scenes from eight to ten all concern punishments: (2) The eight-year-olds are threatened with maguey spikes by their respective parents, as a punishment for deceitfulness. (3) At aged nine, the incorrigible boy is bound and pierced, whilst the mother pricks the girl’s wrist for negligence and idleness. (4) The ten-year-olds are about to be beaten with sticks: the boy’s crime is unspecified, but the failure of the bound girl evidently lies in her poor spinning. Shelfmark: MS. Arch. Selden. A. 1
