1 The Aztec Sunstone Calendar Tonal Machiotl means the footprints of the history of the world. Translated, Tonal is Sun energy, and Machiotl is impression/print. This monolith relic is at the INAH museum in Mexico City. It was buried by the 2nd Archbishop of Mexico in 1559 to cover up the Mexica indigenous cultural tradition. On August 13, 1790 it was found when the Spanish were digging the corner of the Cathedral s towers in the Plaza Mayor. It has, according to the Mexica interpreters of the Tonal Machiotl, 104,000 years of recorded human history. This relic was made in Mexico City, but all its information had been taken from the area of the lower Colorado River Valleys by the Nahua families that migrated south from the Colorado River Valleys thousands of years ago. One of the major sites are the 13 Acatl monuments that are at the base of Eagle Mountain and are shown at the top of the calendar as the arrow indicates. 22
2 Large Eye Mouth LightColored Hair This photo is the image of Tepetlyolotl which means heart of the mountain. This image is directly south of the 13 monuments at the base of the Chuckwalla Mountains. The left arrow points to the light-colored hair representing the cosmos, the middle arrow points to the eye, and the right points to the mouth. The face, facing south, is dark, representing Mother Earth. Borgia Codex Plate 43. This Glyph demonstrates the heart of the mountain, Tepetlyolotl. The arrow is pointing to Tepetlyolotl. The face is the dark image of Yohualtecuhtli s body after sunset when he goes to sleep to the underworld at Eagle Mountain. The surrounding border represents the underworld. 23
3 The above photo is of the humming bird geoglyph at the Ripley Intaglio. It represents the sun at the height of the Summer Solstice. The Ripley Intaglio is connected directly to the Eagle Mountain V where the sun sets on June 21st. He is hovering in mid-air and the geoglyph is flying toward this petroglyph where the sun sets. Humming bird petroglyph at Dragon Wash 24
4 Top Image Symbol of big nose which is a geoglyph on the Colorado River. This big nose symbol represents Tezcatlipoca who represents night, woman and Earth, etc. This is the symbol that is seen on page 17 that is pursuing Quetzalcoatl during the Summer Solstice. Middle Image Borgia Codex glyph of Tezcatlipoca (Big Nose) meaning Black House of the Smoking Mirror (memory). Bottom Image Eagle Mountain image above and just east of the petroglyphs, on the side of the mountain, at the entrance to Dragon Wash as seen from I-10, 5 miles west of Desert Center. It represents Big Nose (Tezcatlipoca) 25
5 Image of Yohualtecuhtli, is seen sleeping because night and the everyday cycle of night and day has caught up with him during the Summer Solstice. This image is just southwest of the V on Eagle Mountain. The head is facing northeast. The lines identify the forehead, the eye and the nose of the sleeping Yohualtecuhtli (the warrior). This image is of Tlazolteotl, Mother Earth, the Creator s image of the woman. This photo depicts the image of the woman s breast. It is right above the Hayfield Pump Aqueduct approx. 4 miles west of Yohualtecuhtli. Yohualtecuhtli goes to sleep on his mother s breast, Tlazolteotl. The mountain image also represents the dolphin. The dolphin represents Mother Earth, but in the ocean when the Earth was covered with water. The left arrow points to the eye of the dolphin. The middle arrow points to the 26
6 nipple of the breast and the right arrow points to the mouth of the dolphin. Photo was taken from Red Cloud Overpass just north of I-10 Winter Solstice Eyes of the Owl that brings and takes during the night and seasons 2. The Beak of the Owl 3. Eyes of the Mask that is below the beak of the Owl. The mask represents the changing of the season. 4. Big mouth of the mask is smirking because of the change 5. Dragon Wash
7 Mayan Idol Idol of Old Person that changes his features after each season. As the season ends, life ends and with the new season, a new life begins. This photo is of Alligator Ridge next to Desert Center. The image represents Cuetzpalin which represents the lizard and is where the name Chuckawalla came from. Chuckawalla Mountains name was derived from the Uto-Aztecan language. 28
8 Cuetzpalin glyph on the Aztec Sunstone calendar which is the 4th day of the 20-day images that are shown on the sunstone calendar. 29
