Summary

Description
English: Folios 15 verso to 16 verso of Codex Mendoza, a 16th-century Mexican manuscript which is very likely a copy of pre-Hispanic manuscripts that no longer exist, which list the military victories of de facto emperor Moctezuma II of Mexico, who ruled through the years of 1502 or 1503 to 1520.

The manuscript is written in Nahuatl writing, with transcriptions in the Latin alphabet and Spanish translations.

The name of each conquered site is written along with a burning temple. Moctezuma is seen at the left of folio 15v, in front of the line at the very end of the folio showing the years he ruled. In front of Moctezuma there's a depiction of a chimalli shield, arrows and a blue spearthrower, representing war.
Español: Folios 15 verso a 16 verso del Códice Mendoza, un manuscrito mexicano del siglo XVI que muy posiblemente es una copia de manuscritos prehispánicos que ya no existen, que son una lista de las victorias militares del emperador de facto de México Moctezuma II, quien reinó entre los años de 1502 o 1503 a 1520.

El manuscrito está escrito en escritura náhuatl, con transcripciones al alfabeto latino y traducciones al español.

El nombre de cada sitio conquistado está escrito junto a un templo quemado. Moctezuma se encuentra a la izquierda del folio 15v, en frente de una línea al borde del folio mostrando los años en que reinó. En frente de Moctezuma se ve la representación de un escudo chimalli, flechas y un lanza dardos azul, representando la guerra.
Date circa 1541
