[Aztlan] Lienzo de Tlaxcala

[Jeanne Gillespie]

I did not hit reply all in my first response...but here is what I have:
Hi, Kier,
There is a facsimile edition of tracings made in Mexico and published by
Chavero in a collection of pictorial documents during the 400 year
commemoration of the first Colombian voyage, *Antigüedades mexicanas*.
This is what is usually shown with the title "Lamina". There was a color
facsimile of that published privately and a black and white version
published by FCE in the 1980's.There are several other copies and pieces of
copies that exist.

The *Historia de Tlaxcala* (*Relaciones geográficas de Tlaxcala) *contains
a sixteenth-century version and continuation of the original lienzo.
(Brotherston and Gallegos 1990)  Sometimes these also appear with "Lamina"
but not as frequently.

My dissertation “Saints and Warriors: The *Lienzo de Tlaxcala* and the
Conquest of Tenochtitlan.”  (Arizona State 1994) and revision/ book  *Saints
and Warriors: Tlaxcalan Perspectives on the Conquest of Tenochtitlan.*  UP
of the South, 2005 and Travis Barton Krantz's dissertation “The Tlaxcalan
Conquest Pictorials: The Role of Images in Influencing Colonial Policy in
Sixteenth-Century Mexico,” UCLA, 2001, trace the various versions and their
dispositions.

If you let me know where you saw it, I can tell you where it came from.
Best,
Jeanne
