Huitzilopochtli,

patron of the Mexica

"And Huitzilopochtli said to them,

'Take what is among the cacti. They will be the first tribute! And at once there, he changed the name of the Aztecs. He said to them, 'From now on, your name is no longer Aztec, you are now Mexica!

There he painted their ears black; in this way the Mexica took their name.

And there they were given the arrow and the bow and the little net.

Whatever flew overhead, the Mexica shot them well with bows and arrows.

Inktober 2022, Day 11: Eagle Huitzilopochtli; Aztec sun and war god, one of the two principal deities of Aztec religion, often represented in art as either a hummingbird or an eagle. This is my representation of this Eagle warrior, Huitzilopochtli, without doubt, was the most feared and powerful god. #inktober2022 #inktober #inktober2022eagle #eagle #art #inkart #traditionalart #characterdesign #aztec #gold #aztecgods #huitzilopochtli #eaglewarrior #artistsoninstagram #drawing #illustration #artist #lineart #hatching #inksharing #azteca #mexicanart #mexicanartist #diadelaraza (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjlCNslLEPw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

South American and Mesoamerican civilizations have fascinated me since childhood, when I would watch The Mysterious Cities of Gold. This early 1980s Japanese-French anime series featured a solar-powered galleon ship, a golden, mechanical condor, three kids exploring the New World at the beginning of the Spanish Conquest, and a mini documentary at the end of each episode. Who could ask for more? (There was even a sequel in 2012!)

But, despite this enchantment, Quetzalcoatl and Tlaloc were the only gods I could identify, while I could name dozens of Greek, Egyptian or Norse Gods. Only ten years ago, I learned about Aztec codices and a whole world of deities, each taking care of some aspects of human life.

Using these codices, I tried to identify them all, like a Pokemon chaser, despite scattered, partial and sometimes contradictory sources. I finally collected and restored illustrations of more than a hundred gods.

Tattoo Quetzalcóatl Quetzalcoalt ❤️ Según la cosmogonía mexica, Quetzalcóatl es hijo de la dualidad creadora del universo Ometeótl, formado por Ometecuhtli y Omecíhuatl. Sus hermanos eran Huitzilopochtli, Tezcatlipoca y Xipe-Tótec. La religión mexica relacionó a Quetzalcóatl como la deidad del viento en su acepción de «Ehécatl», también era la representación del planeta Venus (que anuncia el alba), los comerciantes, las artes, artesanía y conocimiento. Así mismo del sacerdocio mexica, del aprendizaje y el conocimiento. #quetzalcóatl #aztec #cultura #culturamexicana #mexico 🇲🇽 #tenochtitlan #mx #god #aztecgods #gods #dios #diosesbueno #mesoamerica #azteca #culturaazteca #serpiente #serpienteemplumada #tattoo #tatuajes https://www.instagram.com/p/B-N_-c1DuhV/?igshid=gaaddpb7u42y
