About Texcoco
Between about 1100 and 1200 CE, various Nahuatl-speaking peoples spread out through Central Mexico. The Acolhua people settled first at Tenayuca, and a couple of generations later, they established Texcoco. The fortunes of Texcoco rose in the 14th and 15th century, as it gained prominence (and population) together with the nearby Mexica capital of Tenochtitlan and its ally, Tlacopan (also called Tacuba). Together, Tenochtitlan, Texcoco and Tlacopan formed the Aztec Triple Alliance in 1428 to dominate Central Mexico. Less than a century later, the Spanish invasion would put an end to Aztec dominance.
