Landa, Relacion, pp. 44-8. 'Le nom des Tutul-Xiu paraît d'origine nahuatl; il serait dérivé de totol, tototl, oiseau, et de xíuitl, ou xíhuitl, herbe, etc. En ceci il n'y aurait rien d'extraordinaire, puisqu'ils sortaient de Tula ou Tulapan, cité qui aurait été la capitale des Nahuas ou Toltèques après leur victoire sur Xibalba.'

976

This volume, pp. 227-8 (#Page_227). Additional study of the subject has caused me to modify considerably in this chapter some of the statements on Maya history contained in vol. ii., pp. 118-20.

979

See vol. ii., pp. 762-5.

980

In his Hist. Nat. Civ., Brasseur follows this system and repeatedly gives 174 (171 on p. 228 (#Page_228) of this volume is a misprint) as the date of this migration, using it indeed to fix the date of the migration of the Toltecs and Quichés from Tulan; but he adopts the other theory in his notes to Landa's work.

981

Reckoning an epoch as 24 years, the migration lasted from 173 to 270, or 97 years instead of 81, as in the text. Perez has it from 144 to 217, or 73 years, which agrees neither with the text nor with his own theory.

982

As late as 661 or 485, if Perez' statement of 8 Ahau be accepted, which is inconsistent with the whole record.

983

From 218 to 360, according to Perez; or according to his statement that four epochs elapsed, from 270 to 366.

984

360 to 432, Perez; 533 to 605, on the basis of 24 years to an epoch.

985

432 to 576, Perez; 605 to 725 on the basis of 24 years to an epoch.

986

Or 821 according to the other system.

987

We have seen above that there is some confusion about the date of the Tutul Xius taking Chichen.
