It was Quinatzin who transferred the seat of Chichimec power to Texcoco, relegating the city of Tenayuca to a site of secondary importance.[5]
The father of Quinatzin was Tlotzin Pochotl, and a noblewoman called Icpacxochitl.[6]
Quinatzin’s wife was a Princess from Huejotla, Queen Cuauhcihuatzin,[7] mother of his successor Techotlalatzin.[8] Her grandson was Ixtlilxochitl I.[9]
