People connected to Cuauhtémoc
The last emperor of the Aztecs took the throne at 25 while smallpox tore through Tenochtitlan and Spanish forces ringed the city. His name means "one who has descended like an eagle" — a raptor diving toward prey.
About
Cuauhtémoc assumed power in 1520 as successor to Cuitláhuac, a cousin of the late Moctezuma II. His young wife, later known as Isabel Moctezuma, was one of Moctezuma's daughters. He inherited command of Tenochtitlan while the city was under Spanish siege and an epidemic of smallpox — brought by the conquerors — ravaged the population. Few Aztec captains remained after the killings in the Great Temple. He ruled until 1521, the final tlatoani before the empire fell.
