English: Folio 62r from the w:en:Codex Mendoza. Priestly and military training for boys, in alternating rows: (1) (calmecac career) Novice priests with faces and bodies painted black. The one on the left is sweeping, the other three carry loads to the temple: boughs for decoration, maguey spikes for drawing blood, and green canes for fencing and decoration. (2) (telpochcalli career) Youths with bodies painted black, but faces brown, carry loads of firewood and decorative branches to their ‘temple’ (i.e. school), perhaps as part of their initial physical training for the military. (3) (calmecac) Punishments for the novices, whose faces now wear the priestly smear of blood in front of the ear: a head priest punishes a novice for negligence in his duties by drawing blood; and a truant is pierced with spikes all over his body for spending three days at home. (4) (telpochcalli) The start of military training proper. On the left, a high-grade warrior (tequigua) receives the son from his father. On the right, the youth, carrying baggage and shield on his back, follows the warrior to war; the warrior carries a feathered shield and a pointed wooden club. Shelfmark: MS. Arch. Selden. A. 1
