What does the coyolxauhqui stone represent?

The Coyolxauhqui stone would have acted as a warning to Tenochtitlan’s attackers. Female goddesses such as Coyolxauhqui, according to Aztec history, were the first Aztec opponents to die in battle. Coyolxauhqui began to represent all defeated adversaries in this way.
