Motolinia (MH784r)

This black-line drawing of the simplex glyph for the personal name Motolinia ("Poor" or "Sad") is attested here as a man's name. This tax payer is apparently named after the famous Franciscan friar Toribio de Benavente, who took the name Motolinia from Nahuas who were commenting on his being barefooted and wearing ragged clothing. The visual for the descriptor motolinia here shows a fairly humble man. He may have the hair on the top of his head shaved off; it is difficult to determine.
