ResumoespanolLa Historiografia contempla la conquista de Mexico como un logro de Hernan Cortes y del punado de hombres que le acompanaron, eclipsando la presencia de otros protagonistas vitales para la empresa. A traves del Lienzo de Tlaxcala, los tlaxcaltecas reclamaron su protagonismo en la caida de Tenochtitlan, manipulando la realidad de los hechos y eliminando la presencia del resto de los indigenas colaboracionistas. EnglishHistoriography regards the conquest of Mexico as an achievement of Hernan Cortes and the gang who accompanied him, underminding the presence of other aboriginal protagonists who were very important for the endeavour. Through Lienzo de Tlaxcala, the tlaxcaltecas claimed their protagonism in the fall of Tenochtitlan, manipulating the reality of the facts and getting rid of the presence of the rest of the indigenous collaborationists.
