yaoyotl (Azca14)
This iconographic example of the symbols (possibly glyphs) for yaoyotl (battles, warfare) shows a bow (probably wooden and painted pink here), three arrows (two of them with pink shafts) with yellow fletching and a black point, and a circular shield with a mesh pattern in the middle.

These symbols are much like some glyphs for yaotl (enemy or combatant) and various Chichimec glyphs.

post-1550, possibly from the early seventeenth century.
