Cuauhtemoc
He was a great Aztec emperor; an excellent warrior and gladiator; a monarch of prominent value, integrity and authentic nobility.
The last of the Tlatonai Aztecs, forger of a great empire who covered in deed, dreams and richness would bring his people to the love and defense of his town.
He was submitted to the torment of Hernán Cortéz in his quest to force him to reveal where the treasure of the nobility of the great Tenochtitlán was hidden.
His feet and hands were soaked in oil and exposed to low fire. Cuauhtemoc never divulge the location of the treasure. He paid with his life.
