I could not identify "onacticac"
the vowel length of tlahuiztli on the a is debated
tlapohualoh is passive I think, and not impersonal. The original verb should be thought of as "tlapohua."?
I think "chihua" here means to capture
It's interesting that the military apparel is some sort of huipilli? It's possible that the person is not a man, but he does use the é in the vocative which according to our grammar's is a man vocative. It's also possible that huipilli's were not as rigidly feminine as scholarship has made them out to be.
can itahhuan be a plural for father and mother, or does it refer to "forefathers"
