[sátra]pas del dios Xiuhtecuhtli, y aquí sacaban fuego nuevo cada año, en la fiesta huauhquiltamalcualiztli. Y de aquí sacaban el fuego nuevo cuanto quiera que el señor había de incensar delante de los dioses.
\nEl sexagesimosegundo edificio se llamaba Temalácatl. Era una piedra como muela de molino, grande, y estaba agujerada en el medio como muela de molino. Sobre esta piedra ponían los esclavos, y acuchillábanse con ellos. Estaban atados por el medio del cuerpo de tal manera que pudían llegar hasta la circunferencia de la piedra, y dábanlas armas con que peleasen. Era éste un espectáculo muy frecuente, y donde concorría gente de todas las comarcas a verle. Un sátrapa vestido de un pellejo de oso o cuetlachtli era allí el padrino de los captivos que allí mataban, que los llevaba a la piedra y los ataba allí, y los daba las armas y los lloraba entretanto que peleaban. Y cuando caía, lo entregaba al que le había de sacar el corazón, que era otro sátrapa vestido con otro pellejo, que se llamaba yohuallahuan. Esta relación queda escrita a la larga en la fiesta de tlacaxipehualiztli.
