one Of seven powerful tribes that
emerged from seven Caverns In a re-
gion called Aztlan. or place of the
heron. They wandered away from
their fellows after Il great confusion Of
tongues and settled in tie region they
are known TO have inhabited. This
tradition may be partly fabulous. but il
IS sure that the AZtecs settled the
country before the eleventh or twelfth
century.

considerable time until the strong be
