Moctezuma II was killed during the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire in 1520. After initially being taken captive by Hernán Cortés and used as a puppet ruler, he was later attacked by his own people who were revolting against the Spanish presence. According to various accounts, he was either killed by a stone thrown by an Aztec during the uprising or was fatally wounded by Spanish soldiers during the chaos. His death marked a significant turning point in the conquest of the Aztecs.
