Artisans from the Angel Cerón Artisan Association capture the divine essence of Lord Chaac in this original ornate sculpture - an amagalm inspired by various Maya depictions. Chaac is God of Rain and one of the most important dieties in the Maya Pantheon. Elabourate ceremonies were performed in his honour requesting a good and plentiful harvest. "He is usually portrayed as an anthropomorphic image fusing reptilian or amphibian characteristics with that of an elderly human," explain the artisans regarding their original interpretation.

Ive ordered several of these Codex pieces from Angel Ceron Artisan and they are beautiful works of art. Tezcatlipoca is amazing and I am lucky to have gotten one before they sold out. I have several others including Tlaloc and Quetzalcoatl, etc. They are incredible and worth every penny. I can say that the packaging they come in is 100% secure and that I am always amazed at how professionally they are packaged and shipped. They come from Mexico and always come with a hand written note on a postcard from Palenque.
