Moctezuma II (c. 1466-1520) endures among the great of Americas. Aztec emperor who ruled Tenochtitlan at the time of Spanish contact in the early sixteenth century. Across the early modern age, this life and its works passed into the shared inheritance of humankind — kept here so the memory is never lost. Honored among the Great Ones of every civilization. Africa is the cradle of humankind; in the deepest sense, these are everyone’s ancestors — and so this name is kept, from the cradle of humanity to all its children.
