Toltecs (tol'teks or tōl-tāks'). A traditional or perhaps mythical race of Indians, said to have occupied the Mexican plateau during several centuries previous to the advent of the Aztecs. According to the story, they came from Huehuetlapallan, somewhere in the north, and after various migrations and temporary settlements arrived at Tollan (supposed to be Tula in Hidalgo). Here they settled in 661 (or 674?), and a list is given of 9 or 11 "kings" who ruled them. The legends also connect them with the ruins at Teotihuacan, the pyramid at Cholula, etc.; and the prophet orhero Quetzalcohuatl is said to have appeared in their cities, making his final departure from Tlapallan, an unknown locality, but supposed to be near the sea-coast. About 1013 the Toltec power was overthrown, and the nation journeyed southward and disappeared; but many have supposed that the Maya empire, which came into prominence about that time, originated with them. The vaguene and confusion which characterize all accounts of the Toltecs have given rise to many and widely diverse theories about them. Some ethnologists - notably Dr. Brinton-deny that they ever had any real existence except, perhaps, as an early and small gens of the Aztecs; others believe that they formed a powerful kingdom which left profound traces on the later civilizations. All that we can gather about them with safety is that they were a sedentary Indian stock which at some remote time settled in portions of central Mexico, as for instance at Tula, Tullantzinco, Teotihuacan, and perhaps Cholula. Nothing certain is known of their language, and it must not be overlooked that the so-called Toltec names mentioned in the chronicles are in the Nahuatl idiom.
