No. I am referring only to the Aztlantlaca according to Tezozomoc
who were called by others Azteca and changed their name to Mexica
and Tenochca. Prior to arriving in the Mexico Valley they
included the Tarascans (according to Duran) Pur=E9pecha?, and
Malinalcans. They seem to have arrived in the Mexico Valley in
the late mid 13th century and were conquered by the Tecpanecas in
the late 13th Century. It is this specific group to which I refer.
