From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ecatepec (Nahuatl for "wind hill") was an Aztec altepetl or city-state in the Valley of Mexico.

[edit] Tlatoque

From 1428 to 1539, Ecatepec was ruled by a tlatoani (literally "speaker"). The tlatoque (plural of tlatoani) of Ecatepec were closely related to the ruling dynasty of Tenochtitlan.

  1. Chimalpilli I, grandson of Moctezuma I.
  2. Tezozomoc, son of Chimalpopoca.
  3. Matlaccohuatl, whose daughter Teotlalco married Moctezuma II.
  4. Chimalpilli II, son of Ahuitzotl.
  5. Diego Huanitzin, grandson of Axayacatl.

Diego Huanitzin was subsequently made tlatoani of Tenochtitlan by Antonio de Mendoza, viceroy of New Spain.
