  • Xiuhcoatl, which translates from Aztec as Turquoise Serpent, was the name given to an ancient Exxilon weapon abandoned on Earth. The Seventh Doctor called it the most powerful and precise weapon he had ever seen. It was capable of fusing two molecules of hydrogen together or turning a pool of water into a nuclear bomb. It was capable of hollowing out a planet or carving a name on a tree. The weapon was discovered by Huitzilin, who used it to vaporise a mile-wide stretch of forest and the four hundred men hiding within it. (PROSE: The Left-Handed Hummingbird) File:WeaponStub.png
  • In Aztec religion, Xiuhcoatl was a mythological serpent, it was regarded as the spirit form of Xiuhtecuhtli, the Aztec fire deity, and was also an atlatl wielded by Huitzilopochtli. Xiuhcoatl is a Classical Nahuatl word that literally translates as "turquoise serpent"; it also carries the symbolic and descriptive meaning, "fire serpent".

Xiuhcoatl is a Classical Nahuatl word that literally translates as "turquoise serpent"; it also carries the symbolic and descriptive meaning, "fire serpent". Xiuhcoatl was a common subject of Aztec art, including illustrations in Aztec codices and its use as a back ornament on representations of both Xiuhtecuhtlu and Huitzilopochtli. Xiuhcoatl is interpreted as the embodiment of the dry season and was the weapon of the sun. The royal diadem (or xiuhuitzolli, "pointed turquoise thing") of the Aztec emperors apparently represented the tail of the Xiuhcoatl, the fire serpent.

Aufgrund ihrer Eigenschaften und da die Farbe Türkis mit Feuer assoziiert wurde, wird der Name auch als Feuerschlange übersetzt. Eine Statue von Xiuhcoatl aus Texcoco, die im Britischen Museum ausgestellt ist, stellt die Schlange mit einem Paar Vorderbeinen dar. In Huitzilopochtlis Darstellung aus dem Codex Borbonicus besitzt sie jedoch keine Gliedmaßen, ebenfalls als doppelköpfiges Türkis-Mosaik, welches ebenfalls im Britischen Museum ausgestellt ist.
