    Hey fun fact I actually confirmed chicuahtli is the barred owl in Nahuatl after finding the word chichtli for barn owl.

    It’s still a mess online sorting it out when doing searches for it and I haven’t cross referenced versus other dialects.

    Regardless keep posting owl pics. I’ve been doing Codex research for fun and found a good source for images. I’ll start keeping note of where I find owls and reach out later.

      Very nice! I’m into whatever info you have to share! Always down to learn more about other cultures.

      If you ever assemble anything to read, I’d love to hear about some of what you’ve learned about owls or the Nahuatl in general. You’ve had to have put in a lot of hard work and I’m sure you’ve connected a ton of great random bits of history and culture.
