TIZOC, Mexican king, died in 1482. He succeeded his brother Axavacatl on the throne in 1477, having been general of his predecessor's armies. According to the historical paintings of his time, he conquered during his brief reign fourteen cities, some in the valley of Toluca, and assisted King Netzahualpitl, of Texeoco, to subdue the revolution of his brothers allied with the republic of Huexotzingo. Tizoc began the magnificent temple in honor of Huitzilopochtli, the god of war, but before its conclusion was poisoned by instigation of TechoHalla, cacique of Ixtapalapan, who was afterward executed in the public square of Mexico in presence of the allied kings.
Editor's Note: According to Zoe Steenberge
"Tizoc was the ruler of Tenochtitlan from 1482-1486. he did not rule in 1477
since his brother Axayacatl was still alive then. he was poisoned on orders of
his brother Ahuitzotl and the council. the correct spelling for the king of
Texcoco is Nezahualpilli."
