Aculnahuacatl was a son of Tezozomoc, the ruler of Azcapotzalco, who installed him as ruler of Tlacopan. He married Tlacochcuetzin, the daughter of Tlacacuitlahuatzin, the ruler of Tiliuhcan, and had two sons: Coauoxtli and Oquetzal.[2]
"Acolnahuacatl" was part of an anti-Mexica coalition to drive the then-nomadic tribe off or exterminate them.[1]
