Was xochitl an Aztec princess

Answer 1

Yes Xochitl was a Aztec princess and she did exist. I know because I am a direct decendcent of her and I am named after her and so was my grandmother, my great grandmother, and so on, and have been taught since I was a child everything about her and the importance of keeping the truth alive. She was The Daughter of an Aztec Emperior. She was promised to an aztec warrior her father approved of, but she was also the mistress of Cortez. The Conquistitors were assassinating various Indian tribes in thier search for gold. She made a deal with Cortez in order to save her family and tribe. She got the aztec warriors drunk and had sex with them. When they passed out, Cortez's army slaughtered them in thier sleep. Princess Xochitl's family fled the area and settled in the Larado, Texas area. The Aztec warrior she was promised to was away when the event happened. When he returned and saw what happened, he eventually tracked her down and killed her. That is what the famous drawing of the Princess Xochitl reflects: The warrior holding a dead princess Xochitl. When the Mexican American revolution happened, the American goverenment granted Princess Xochitl's Tribe land outside of Larado with a treaty in exchange for staying out of the war. Once the war was won, the goverenment began taxing the land and eventually reclaimed it due to backtaxes, which was supposed to be tax free according to the treaty. My ancestors Lived there for many decades.

The name is pronounced "Zoe-che-tul" in The Aztec Language, In spanish it is pronounced "So-chill" ' And the nickname is "So-chee".

It Means Flower in Aztec, Is the goddess of wine and love, and is the holiday of flowers on the Aztec calender.

The princess Xochitl made a hard choice, but saved the Aztec bloodline which still exists and runs strong through my ancesters, me and my decendents, and we are proud and strong.
