BOSQUE CANTON, Cristina. Representation of Teotihuacan and its territory in codices and colonial maps. An. antropol. [online]. 2019, vol.53, n.2, pp.29-36.  Epub 30-Nov-2019. ISSN 2448-6221.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iia.24486221e.2019.2.67135.

Teotihuacan was one of the largest human settlements in Mesoamerica, although in the Postclassic and Colonial times it had already lost some of that importance. In spite of this, it is represented in various pictographic documents from the Colonial era, showing its name and some of the most important elements of the human landscape of this period. The purpose of this work is to show, through the comparison of several pictographic documents, how a transformation occurred in both the conceptualization of the Teotihuacan toponym and in the elements that were represented at the cartographic level.

Palavras-chave : Teotihuacan; toponymy; Mesoamerican codices; Colonial cartography.
