The atl-tlachinolli or atlachinolli ['water, burnt-earth'] is a difrasismo (dialectical metaphor) that pairs the elemental opposites of water and fire into a single symbol of war. Based on a detail from the back side engraving of the "Teocalli of the Sacred War" stone sculpture at the National Museum of Anthropology, Mexico City. See also Ian Mursell at Mexicolore.
