Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Verwijst in de Nahua-cultuur naar volledige uitrustingen die in gevechten werden gedragen en die lichaam, armen en benen omsloten. Ze waren gemaakt van veren die in een ondersteunend weefsel werden genaaid en ze reflecteerden de status van de persoon die ze droeg. De term wordt ook algemener gebruikt voor bijbehorende insignes, wapens die door de krijger werden gedragen en de hoofdtooien die bij de kledij hoorden. De hoofdtooi reflecteerde vaak het thema van de kledij, waarop afbeeldingen van dieren, demonen, goden of natuurelementen zoals sterrenhemels of vlammen konden staan. 
Eastern Huasteca Nahuatl ..... Tlanexcayotilli tlen tlatehuianih ipan tlaneltoquilli nahuatl quitl quimanextia ce itequiuh tlanahuatihquetl tlen achi huahcapan huan quipiya miac ixtlamatiliztli tlen ce tlahuilantli.

Spanish ..... Insignia de guerreros en la cultura nahua que reflejan el rango y la experiencia de la persona en la batalla. Aunque generalmente se utiliza para referirse a los trajes de plumas que cubrían el cuerpo, los brazos y las piernas, el término también se aplica a varios accesorios, incluyendo tocados, grandes emblemas sostenidos por un armazón que se lleva en la espalda, así como estandartes y escudos.
