Coyolxāuhqui

Coyolxāuhqui

In Aztec religion, Coyolxāuhqui is a daughter of the goddess Cōātlīcue. She was the leader of her brothers, the Centzonhuītznāhua. She led her brothers in an attack against their mother, Cōātlīcue, when they learned she was pregnant, convinced she dishonored them all. The attack is thwarted by Coyolxāuhqui's other brother, Huītzilōpōchtli, the national deity of the Mexica.
