The eighteen-month Aztec solar calendar's major public rites, including Toxcatl, Panquetzaliztli and Miccailhuitl, known chiefly from Spanish colonial-era chronicles and codices compiled after the conquest. The friars who recorded these accounts shaped what survives, so descriptions of ritual detail carry that filter rather than an unmediated Aztec voice.
