The Aztecs and Tenochtitlan
One day long time ago, the god Huitzilopochtli told the leader of the Aztecs,
Tenoch, to go with his people to an island in the middle of a lake. Huitzilopochtli
told Tenoch to look for an eagle perched on a cactus, growing from a rock
surrounded by water. They should build their city there. The Aztecs looked for
this place for many years. Finally, they found the island on a lake where they
built their city. They called their city Tenochtitlan, around 1325. Tenochtitlan
became in Mexico City.
