The book centers on the lineage and history of the rulers and indigenous peoples of Culhuacan as well as the significant rulers of Tenochtitlan, the Aztec capital. It serves to record and explain the dynasties and political structures of these ancient civilizations. The text presents a chronological account of the rulers, detailing their reigns, accomplishments, and lineage, expressing the political significance of these leaders to the community of Culhuacan and Tenochtitlan. The narrative is interwoven with cultural and mythological references, providing insight into the customs and traditions of the Mexica people.
