Lady Yohl Ik’nal – The first female ruler of the Mayans

Saturday, 2 June 2018, 7:00 Lauralee Swann 0
Lady Yohl Ik’ nal was the first recorded female ruler of the Mayan city of Palenque and the first to have a full royal title. Historians believe that her role was unusual because she held power for twenty-one years.[1] This is because women only held power temporarily through their son, who was too young to rule.[2] Historians [read more]

Saturday, 12 May 2018, 20:00 Lauralee Swann 0
Ilancueitl was the first queen of the Aztecs. She was a Colhuacan princess who married the king of Tenochtitlan primarily for strategic purposes.
