The Codex Mexicanus is an early colonial Mexican pictorial manuscript.
The Codex can be divided into several sections: The saints, the European calendar and zodiac. The Aztec calendar. Accounts in the Aztec pictographic writing system. A family tree of the rulers of Mexico. The history of the Mexica from their departure from Aztlan. Colonial history. Two Christian scenes: the Temptation of Christ and the Adoration. A tonalamatl. This last section is incomplete.
It is currently held in the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris.
