Por lo cual inventaron la astrología judiciaria y el arte de interpretar los sueños; compusieron la cuenta de los días, y de las noches, y las horas, y las diferencias de tiempos que se guardó mientras señorearon y gobernaron los señores de los tultecas, y de los mexicanos, y de los tepanecas, y de todos los chichimecas. Por lo cual cuenta no se puede saber qué tanto tiempo estuvieron en Tamoanchan, y se sabía por las pinturas que se quemaron en tiempo del señor de México que se decía Itzcóatl, en cuyo tiempo los señores y los principales que había entonces acordaron y mandaron que se quemasen todas, porque no viniesen a manos del vulgo y viniesen en menosprecio.
