Cacamatzin was a 15th-century Aztec noble — the eldest son of the cihuacoatl, Tlacaelel[1] — and warrior who held the title of Tlacochcalcatl. His mother was princess Maquiztzin.[2]
He had twelve children, only three of whom are known:[3]
- A female (name unknown), who married Nezahualpilli, the tlatoani of Texcoco. The pair had a son, named Cacamatzin after his grandfather, who succeeded his father as ruler of Texcoco.[3]
- Tlacaelel II, named after his grandfather, who also became cihuacoatl.[4]
- Chicuey or Chicome Axochitzin, a warrior whose daughter became the mistress of Juan Rodríguez de Villafuerte, a Spanish conquistador.[3]
Cacamatzin was killed by the Purépecha after being captured in battle.[2]
