Colimotl
Hueytlatoani Colimotl or Rey Coliman is a mythical and possibly historical figure who is considered a symbol of the Mexican state of Colima. According to legend, he was the last emperor of the Tecos people, who inhabited the region which became Colima until the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire. Colimotl is known for leading a rebellion against the Spanish conquest. His army defeated the Spaniards in two battles at Trojes and Palenque de Tecoman before falling in the Battle of Alima near modern-day Tecomán, at which Colimotl was killed.

He is commemorated by a statue in Colima City, which was erected in 1955 and designed by Juan F. Olaguíbel. H ...
