Meaning of 'Colhuacan'

Apparently 'colhuacan' in nahuatl means (literally) "place of those with ancestors"; although it is true that its toponymic glyph in the codices does take the form of a 'bent' or 'twisted' hill, it's more an example of how homonyms/phonetic similarities were used in the writing system: the root col- had meanings of both "ancestor" and "bent, twisted", as in with old age.

I've amended the description, but don't think I've explained it very well, nor why/how this is relevant to Chicomoztoc. Will look to improve it when I get a little more time, or if someone else can see a way to make it clearer, then by all means go ahead.--cjllw | TALK 14:52, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
