About the word "teotl" and Ometeotl

Dear Ramiro,

It's rather an old book, but Arild Hvidtfeldt's 'Teotl and *ixiptlatli: some 
central conceptions in ancient Mexican religion with a general introduction 
on cult and myth' specifically considers the issue of 'teotl' (Copenhagen, 
1958) in detail with extended quotation and references. It was based on his 
thesis I believe, and although much of the surrounding literature has moved 
on, it remains a valuable and detailed study and well worth a look for 
anyone interested in this issue, because it is so closely focused on this 
issue (alongside that of ixiptla).

Best wishes,
Caroline
