Why Is Nezahualcoyotl Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Nezahualcoyotl was a scholar, philosopher , warrior, architect, poet and ruler of the city-state of Texcoco in pre-Columbian era Mexico. Unlike other high-profile Mexican figures from the century preceding Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire, Nezahualcoyotl was not fully Mexica; his father's people were the Acolhua, another Nahuan people settled in the eastern part of the Valley of Mexico, on the coast of Lake Texcoco. His mother, however, was the sister of Chimalpopoca, the Mexica king of Tenochtitlan.
