ResumoIf there is one villainess in Mexican history, she is Malintzin. She was to become the ethnic traitress supreme.[1] Such is one version of the popular view of Malintzin or Dofia Marina, as she was christened by Cort6s' padres, or La Malinche, as she came to be known among the Aztecs. Indeed, in the current reevaluation of pre-Columbian culture among many Chicanos, La Malinche remains one of the few indigenous figures in the Conquest of Mexico to be viewed with contempt.
