Huitzilopochtli appeared to
one of the priests and told him to search for the eagle on a cactus who was eating a
serpent. That cactus, was called
tenochtli.
In among the rushes, at the edge of a spring, they saw
an eagle perched on a cactus, eating a snake.
The Aztecs built their city at this place on the
island of Tenoch. |
