The Eagle and the Snake in Chapultepec Castle
sketchfab
The coat of arms tells a story about Mexico City's founding, previously known as Tenochtitlan. According to legend in original Mexica documents like codices and paintings, no snake appears. The Fejérváry-Mayer codex shows an eagle attacking a snake, but other illustrations depict only the eagle. In the Ramírez Codex text, Huitzilopochtli instructs Tenochtitlan people to find an eagle eating a snake perched on a prickly pear cactus. Chimalpahin Cuauhtlehuanitzin's writing describes the eagle devouring something unspecified. Other versions of the story include the eagle holding the Aztec symbol for war, the Atl-Tlachinolli glyph or "burning water".
