discussion of the subject in the _Compte-Rendu_ of the Seventh
International Congress of Americanists, p. 559, _seq._ The adoption of
subterranean temples was peculiarly a Zapotecan trait. "Notandose
principalmente en muchos adoratorios de los Zapotecos, estan los mas de
ellos cubiertos, o en subterraneos espaciosos y lobregos." Carriedo,

[43-*] See Dr. Seler's minute description in the _Compte Rendu_ of the
Eighth Session of the Congres International des Americanistes, pp. 588,
589. In one of the conjuration formulas given by de la Serna (_Manual de
Ministros_, p. 212) the priest says: "Yo soy el sacerdote, el dios
_Quetzalcoatl_, que se bajara al infierno, y subire a lo superior, y
hasta los nueve infiernos." This writer, who was very competent in the
Nahuatl, translates the name Quetzalcoatl by "culebra con cresta"
(_id._, p. 171), an unusual, but perhaps a correct rendering.
[43-[+]] His words here are somewhat obscure. They are, "El baptismo de
fuego, en donde las ponen los sobre nombres que llaman _yahuiltoca_,
quando nacen." This may be translated, "The baptism of fire in which
they confer the names which they call _yahuiltoca_." The obscurity is in
the Nahuatl, as the word _toca_ may be a plural of _tocaitl_, name, as
well as the verb _toca_, to throw upon. The passage is from the _Camino
del Cielo_, fol. 100, verso.
[43-[++]] Sahagun, _Historia de la Nueva Espana_, Lib. iv, cap. 25.
[43-Sec.] It is mentioned as useful for this purpose by the early
physicians, Francisco Ximenes, _Cuatro Libros de la Naturaleza_, p. 144;
Hernandez, _Hist. Plant. Novae Hispaniae_, Tom. ii, p. 200. Capt. Bourke,
in his recent article on "The Medicine Men of the Apaches" (in _Ninth
Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology_, p. 521), suggests that the
_yiahuitli_ of the Aztecs is the same as the "hoddentin," the pollen of
a variety of cat-tail rush which the Apaches in a similar manner throw
into the fire as an offering. Hernandez, however, describes the
_yiahuitli_ as a plant with red flowers, growing on mountains and
hill-sides--no species of rush, therefore. De la Serna says it is the
anise plant, and that with it the natives perform the conjuration of the
"yellow spirit" (conjuro de amarillo espiritado), that is, of the Fire
(_Manual de Ministros_, p. 197).
[44-*] From the verb _apeua_. Vetancurt's description is in his _Teatro
Mexicano_, Tom. i, pp. 462, 463 (Ed. Mexico, 1870).
[44-[+]] His frequent references to it show this. See his _Manual de
Ministros_, pp. 16, 20, 22, 24, 36, 40, 66, 174, 217, etc. The word
_tlecuixtliliztli_ is compounded of _tlecuilli_, the hearth or
fireplace, and _ixtliluia_, to darken with smoke.
[45-*] Duran, _Historia de los Indios de la Nueva Espana_, Tom. ii, p.
240. Sahagun adds that the _octli_ was poured on the hearth at four
separate points, doubtless the four cardinal points. _Historia de Nueva
Espana_, Lib. i, cap. 18. De la Serna describes the same ceremony as
current in his day, _Manual de Ministros_, p. 35. The invocation
ran:--"Shining Rose, light-giving Rose, receive and rejoice my heart
before the God."
[45-[+]] A copy of these strange "Books of Chilan Balam" is in my
possession. I have described them in my _Essays of an Americanist_
(Philadelphia, 1890).

text is more definite than the Spanish translation.
[46-[+]] See my _Myths of the New World_, p. 154, _seq._
[46-[++]] In the Nahuatl language the word _xihuitl_ (_xiuitl_) has four
meanings: a plant, a turquoise, a year and a comet.

[49-[++]] Pedro de los Rios, in his notes to the Codex Vaticanus,
published in Kingsborough's great work, assigns the sign, _cohuatl_, the
serpent, to "il membro virile, il maggio augurio di tutti gli altri." It
is distinctly so shown on the 75th plate of the Codex. De la Serna
states that in his day some of the Mexican conjurors used a wand, around
which was fastened a living serpent. _Manual de Ministros_, p. 37.
[49-Sec.] There is abundant evidence of this in certain plates of the Codex
Troano, and there is also alleged to be much in the Codex Mexicanus of
the Palais Bourbon. Writing about the latter, M. Aubin said as far back
as 1841--"le culte du lingam on du phallus n'etait pas etranger aux
Mexicains, ce qu' etablissent plusieurs documents peu connus et des
sculptures decouvertes depuis un petit nombre d'annees." His letter is
in Boban, _Catalogue Raisonne la Collection Goupil_, Tom. ii, p. 207. On
the frequent identification of the serpent symbol with the phallus in
classical art, consult Dr. Anton Nagele's article, "Der
Schlangen-Cultus," in the _Zeitschrift fuer Voelkerpsychologie_, Band

Indians in the province of Acapulco were put to death for having buried
enchanted ashes beneath the floor of a chapel! (Serna, _Manual de
Ministros_, p. 52.)
[55-[++]] "Nagual ist in seiner correcten Form _naoal_ ein echtes
Quiche-Wort, ein Substantivum instrumentale, vom Stamme _nao_, wissen,
erkennen. _Naoal_ ist dasjenige, womit oder woran etwas, in diesem Falle
das Schicksal des Kindes, erkannt wird, und hat mit dem mexikanischen
_nahualli_ (Hexe), mit dem man es vielleicht in Verbindung bringen
moechte, nichts zu schaffen." _Guatemala_, s. 238.
[57-*] The Abbe Brasseur observes: "Le mot _nahual_, qui vet dire toute
science, ou science de tout, est frequemment employe pour exprimer la
sorcellerie chez ces populations." _Bulletin de la Societe de
Geographie_, 1857, p. 290. In another passage of his works the
speculative Abbe translates _naual_ by the English "know all," and is
not averse to believing that the latter is but a slight variant of the
former.
