toncohualonotia

[Molly Harbour Bassett]

Hi all,

In section 26 (p. 19) of Tezozomoc's _Cronica Mexicayotl_, Adrian Leon translates toncohualonotia as "que venia yaciendo en un cofre." As best I can tell, toncohualonotia has to do with money or buying something (cohua; tlacocohualoni), but I must be overlooking something.

I've pasted the context below. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Molly
