The Aztecs received a prophecy that their future leader would emerge from the south and signal the arrival of a new era. This prophecy was closely linked to the god Huitzilopochtli, who was believed to guide them in their quest for a homeland. Additionally, it foretold the return of the god Quetzalcoatl, which many interpreted as a sign of significant change and the eventual downfall of the Aztec Empire when Spanish conquistadors arrived, led by Hernán Cortés. This prophecy fueled both hope and fear among the Aztec people during the tumultuous period of conquest.
What else can I help you with?

Cortés arrived in 1519, coinciding with the timing of this prophecy, and his arrival on the coast was seen as a fulfillment of it. This misunderstanding played a significant role in the Aztecs' initial reception of Cortés and his men.
