摘要:The documentation concerning the cacicazgo of Tlatelolco is abundant but problematic due to the incongrous nature of much of the information. It is necessary to apply a meticulous philological analysis of the sources in order to avoid errors in our historical interpretations. As such, the present article is a sample of the fascinating world of historical elaboration which includes false documents and illegitimate appropiation of symbols and historical feats. I will show this through a case study of the Tlatelolco cacique Don Diego de Mendoza (1549-1562).
