Stones of Tizocic and Motecuhzoma I / Axayacatl -- Location

[Gordon Whittaker]

Dear colleagues,

Many thanks to David Wright and Michel Oudijk for these valuable book
tips. I presume most photos so far only depict Tizocic's famous
temalacatl, or do these books / catalogues also show the more recently
discovered stone that Michel Graulich identifies as commissioned by
Axayacatl (rather than Motecuhzoma Ilhuicamina)?

I could curse myself for not doing a thorough study of Tizocic's monument
while in Mexico last year. I'm not sure where the other monument is
located at present and whether it is on public display. Does anyone happen
to know where it's housed today?

Best wishes and thanks,
Gordon
