Purépecha goddess of hunger/famine, named in the Relación among the 'aunts of the gods of heaven'. SOLITARY: the only kinship attested for her is the generic, unnamed 'aunt of the gods' formula — no specific named parent, sibling or consort is given in the sources — so no kin edge is asserted rather than inventing one.
