The Tepanecs or Tepaneca are a Mesoamerican people who arrive in the Valley of Mexico in the late 12th or early 13th centuries.

The Tepanec are a sister culture of the Aztecs (or Mexica) as well as the Acolhua and others—these tribes speak the Nahuatl language and share the same general pantheon, with local and tribal variations.
