Bernardino de Sahagún
One song or poem attributed to Xicotencatl is known. It is recorded in the "Cantares mexicanos" (fols. 57v.–58r.), a collection of Nahuatl songs probably compiled in the last third of the 16th century for Bernardino de Sahagún, and concerns the flower wars conducted between Tlaxcala and the states of the Aztec Triple Alliance.
