His arrangement, as derived from the leading codices, is as follows:
Tochtli -- South -- Earth. Acatl -- East -- Water. Tecpatl -- North -- Fire. Calli -- West -- Air.
In order that the various views may be seen at a glance, I give here a tabulated _résumé_:
1. Tecpatl -- Flint -- Fire. 2. Calli -- House -- Earth. 3. Tochtli -- Rabbit -- Air. 4. Acatl -- Cane -- Water.
1. Tochtli -- Rabbit -- South. 2. Acatl -- Cane -- East. "Toward the fire or sun." 3. Tecpatl -- Flint -- North. "Nearly towards hell." 4. Calli -- House -- West. "Towards the house of women."

Judging from the differences shown in these lists, we are forced to the conclusion that no entirely satisfactory result has been reached in reference to the assignment of the different symbols to the cardinal points; still a careful analysis will bring out the fact that there is a strong prevalency of opinion on one or two points among the earlier authorities. In order that this may be seen I present here a list in a different form from the preceding.
