Récits aztèques de la Conquète. note 65 page 389.Le terme a été traduit avec constance par 'bledos', 'blette', jusqu'à l'époque moderne où la plante a été identifiée avec l'amarante. Des graines oléagineuses de l'amarante, les Aztèques tiraient une pâte, le tzoalli (Cf. tzohualli), dont ils faisaient une consommation cérémonielle. Christian Duverger, L'origine des Aztèques p.95.Graine de blette (huauhquilitl) que les Mexicains ne mangeaient guère que dans les temps de famine;ils lui préféraient le maïs (S)." huauhtli polocayah ", graine non émondée (Sah.).Blette ou bette = plante voisine de la betterave.Les chroniqueurs traduisent 'bledo', blé. Cf. Molina.Angl., amaranth (K qui transcrit huauhtli).Esp., huatle, una semilla que comen tostada (Z154).Plusieurs variétés d'amarante sont décrites Sah11,286-288. Une liste de variétés d'amarante.

Sah8,38.NOTE: 'The Indians themselves probably used the name " huauhtli " for a variety of plants, grown for different purposes. Some of the compond names may well have been restricted to particular species. 'xôchihuauhtli' may have meant a chenopod whose inflorescences werecooked in the bud stage as a green vegetable as is commonly done in modern Mexico. 'nexhuauhtli' like the common Spanish word for chenopods, 'cenizo', probably referred to the whitish appearance of some chenopods... 'michihuauhtli' and 'tezcahuauhtli' probably referred to light- and dark-seemed amaranths, respectively, the former with pale seeds like little fish eggs, the latter with shiny black seeds'.
