Ilancueitl (Nahuatl for "old-woman skirt"; pronounced [ilaŋˈkʷeː.itɬ]) was the first queen of Tenochtitlan.^[3]

Biography

Ilancuéitl was a daughter of the then ruler of Culhuacán, Acolmiztli^{[citation needed]}, and she married her nephew Acamapichtli, who thus became the first ruler of Tenochtitlan.^[4]^[5]^[6] She bore no children, so her husband took more wives.^[4]

Ilancuéitl charged herself with the education of her stepson Huitzilihuitl.

Some sourced claimed that Ilancuéitl actually became ruler of Tenochtitlan herself.^[7]
