In Louis L'Amour's novel, The Burning Hills, the hero speculates as to the bloodline of the heroine, who is of Indian/Mexican derivation of some sort.
"What could her blood line be? The Conquistadores? Or that even older lineage, of the Toltec kings?"
The Toltec civilization reached its apex from 950 to 1150 A.D. There are lists of their rulers, but they do not appear to be reliable and are therefore considered largely legendary. The Aztecs reportedly claimed descent from them. Pictured below are Toltec warrior columns.
