ic of Mexico. The state that the conquerors destroyed was not an empire,as termed by the contemporary Spanish chroniclers, but ratherI a sort of league or confederacy — something like the Iroquoisconfederacy in the North — formed of three Indian tribes.-^^ Ofthese the Aztecs were the leading tribe and gave name to theconfederacy. At the head of the league stood a sachem, orwar-chief, who bore the name of Montezuma. 11 Juan Ponce de Leon started on his romantic expedition in search of the fabledspring in 1512; Vasco de Balboa discovered the Pacific in 1513; Hernando de Soto,while searching for a rich Indian kingdom, found the Mississippi in 1541; and in thesame year Francisco de Orellana descended the eastern slope of the Andes to theNapo, floated down that stream to the Amazon, and then drifted on down to the sea. 12 Prescotts description of the Mexican state, especially as to its political organi-zation, is misleading. For later authorities see bibliography at end of the chapter.
