Coatlicue (/kwɑːtˈliːkweɪ/; Classical Nahuatl:cōātl īcue, pronounced [koːaːˈtɬíːkʷe], “skirt of snakes”), also known as Teteoh innan (Classical Nahuatl:tēteoh īnnān, pronounced [teːˌtéoʔ ˈíːnːaːn̥], “mother of the gods”), is the Aztec goddess who gave birth to the moon, stars, and Huitzilopochtli, the god of the sun and war. The goddesses Tocih “our grandmother”, and Cihuacoatl “snake woman”, the patron of women who die in childbirth, were also seen as aspects of Coatlicue.
