"On the reverse of the two fragments found to date [Codex Humboldt Fragmento 1 (Ms. amer. 2); Codex Azoyú 2 reverso], there is a depiction of the history of tribute payments made by the province of Tlapa to the Aztec Empire (Tenochitlan, Tetzcoco, and Tlacopan) after the Tlachinollan kingdom was conquered by the armies of the tlatoani, Ahuizotl, in 1486"--P. 20.

Codex Humboldt Fragmento 1 (Ms. amer. 2)  is one of 16 fragments of indigenous pictorial documents from the collection of Antonio León y Gama acquired at public auction by Baron Alexander von Humboldt during his visit to New Spain (1803-1804) and currently housed in the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin; the Códice Azoyú 2 reverso was found in the Tlapanec town of Azoyú located in the Costa Chica of Guerrero and currently housed in the Biblioteca Nacional de Antropología e Historia (Mexico); both codices belong to a larger document (about 1/3 still missing) consisting of at least 52 painted folios measuring up to 15.5 meters in length.
