Centzonmīmixcōa
In Aztec mythology, the Centzonmīmixcōa are the gods of the northern stars.
The Aztec gods of the southern stars are the Centzonhuītznāhua.
According to the Manuscript of 1558, section 6, these 400 'Cloud-Serpents' were divinely slain in this wise; of their five protagonists:
- Cuāuhtli-icohuauh "hid inside a tree";
- Mix-cōātl "hid within the earth";
- Tlo-tepētl "hid within a hill";
- Apan-teuctli "hid in the water";
- their sister, Cuetlach-cihuatl, "hid in the ball court."
From this ambuscade, these 5 slew the 400.
