To support the critical edition and translation of two Nahuatl texts, the ANALES DE CUAUHTITLAN (Annals of the Aztec City-state, Cuauhtitlan) and the LEYENDA DE LOS SOLES (Legends of the Suns), native pre-Columbian histories and sacred myths of the Aztecs preserved in a 16th-century transliteration.
