This Nahuatl text is a discussion of the boundaries of the lands of Ocoyacac, and the neighboring communities that share borders with this altepetl. Interestingly, a neighboring town is Santa María Tepexoyuca, for which there is a separate Techialoyan manuscript. Some 800 mecatl (measuring cords) are mentioned as pertaining to the municipal palace. [SW]
