    • Abstract:
      This article addresses the multi-disciplinary and inter-related analysis of various liminal and border spaces on the Island of Tenochtitlan associated with both Toci worship and the highest ranking political-military positions in the ancient Mexica social hierarchy. A study of archival sources, references to Ethno-History sources in the Pre-Hispanic and Vice-Regal eras, iconographic observations and interpretative proposals imbued with Meso-American Ethnology suggest that deep semiotic connections exist between the worship of Toci-Teteo Innan and the exercise of power and political rituals among the Tenochas.

    • Abstract:
      El presente trabajo afronta el análisis multidisciplinar e interrelacionado de varios espacios liminales y de frontera en la isla de Tenochtitlan asociados tanto al culto a Toci como a prístinos cargos político-militares dentro de la antigua jerarquía social mexica. Mediante el estudio de fuentes de archivo, referencias a fuentes etnohistóricas de época prehispánica y virreinal, observaciones iconográicas y propuestas interpretativas versadas en la etnología mesoamericana se sugiere la existencia de profundas conexiones semióticas entre el culto a Toci-Teteo Innan y la praxis del poder y del ritual político entre los tenochcas.
