Direct answer

Huitzilopochtli — Source identity is implemented as a source-bounded source identity guide.

Answer contract

Answer only the source identity question inside the adjudicated boundary and inspected source scopes; label source, translation, period, rights, and uncertainty explicitly.

Evidence and exact locators

getty-florentine-project-and-terms — Project history and edition description; Getty Terms of Use; Codex book index and parallel text/translation labels. Supports: Establishes the manuscript’s collaborative sixteenth-century production and the digital edition’s separate Nahuatl, Spanish, and translation layers.

florentine-huitzilopochtli-1r — Book 1, folio 1r; Nahuatl and Spanish columns, modern translations, Chapter 1 and notes. Supports: Provides a named folio witness for Huitzilopochtli and exposes differences between the parallel columns and translations.

What the evidence does not establish

The project description’s reliability claim does not remove colonial mediation or make translations and images freely reusable.

This is a sixteenth-century collaborative and colonial witness. Nahuatl, Spanish, later English translations, footnotes, and Christian polemic cannot be collapsed into one unmediated precolonial voice.
