At the foot of Coatepec, at the base of the stairs that led to the temple of Huitzilopochtli, where the great stone of Coyolxauhqui was placed, reeds were gathered by the warriors and made into darts. And during the month, mothers brought their children to the old women who served in the temple Teotlalpan. The old women held the children in their arms, then returned them to their mothers, who took them home to their calpulli. Human images, ixiptla, of the gods of pulque, Tlamatzincatl and Izquitecatl, two of the 400 Totochtzin, died in Quecholli. With them died their wives, called Coatlicue. Images of the hunting god Mixcoatl and his wife, Yeuatlicue or Cuetlacihuatl, were sacrificed as well. The women died at the temple called Coatlan, place of the serpent. And because they would need their tools after death, each woman burned what she owned: "her woman's belongings: her basket, her spindle whorl, her chalk, her spinning bowl, her warping frame, her cane stalks, her batten, her large straw for weaving, her divided cord which held up the cloth, her loom waist band, her weaving sword, and her thorns, and her skeins, her heddle, and her measuring stick. All of it she burned herself."
