Mixtec Princess Cocusi of Tilantongo by Miguel Angel Omaña Rojas

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Lady Cocusi or Lady 3-Flint was an important Ñuudzahui (Mixtec) princess from Ancient Mexico. Her story was depicted with glyphs in indigenous books like Codex Nuttall (pages 14 – 19) anverse. She is the founder of the kingdom of Ñuu Tnoo - Huahi Andehui (Tilantongo, Oaxaca) and founder of the city's royal lineage. Of great power, and importance, she married two princes, and attained the power to move the dead remains of 9 Wind (Quetzalcoatl?) as relics. Again, history itself debunks the wrong widespread Western idea that indigenous peoples in Mexico were based in a macho society. This painting depicts a rite that was part of her wedding ritual in day 2 eagle, year 10 house (year 957?). Centuries later the Mixtecs were conquered by the Aztecs.
Español: La princesa Cocusi o Princesa 3-Flint fue una importante princesa Ñuudzahui (mixteca) del Antiguo México. Su historia fue representada con glifos en libros indígenas como el Codice Nuttall (páginas 14 - 19) en el anverso. Es la fundadora del reino de Ñuu Tnoo - Huahi Andehui (Tilantongo, Oaxaca) y fundadora del linaje real de la ciudad. De gran poder e importancia, se casó con dos príncipes y obtuvo el poder de trasladar los restos muertos de 9 Viento (¿Quetzalcóatl?) como reliquias. Una vez más, la historia misma desacredita la idea occidental errónea y generalizada de que los pueblos indígenas de México estaban basados en una sociedad machista. Esta pintura representa un rito que era parte de su ritual nupcial en el día 2 águila, año 10 casa (¿año 957?). Siglos más tarde los mixtecos fueron conquistados por los aztecas.
