Mixtec God of the Underworld Aztec Archaeology Ceramic God of the Underworld Sculpture

Angel Ceron Artisan Association

(261)

Seated with elbows on his bony knees, Mictlantecuhtli is a skeletal specter, revered throughout most of Mexico's pre-Hispanic cultures as one of the most powerful deities. Members of the Angel Ceron Artisan Association present their own interpretation of an image of the Aztec god of death found in Mexico's Xalapa Museum of Anthropology. The artisans shape the frightening personage by hand, fire it and give it an aged finish. Mictlantecuhtli was considered the king of the underworld realm of Mictlán, and was thus the Lord of Death.

Offering of Maize Mexico Archaeology Terracotta Corn God Sculpture

Angel Ceron Artisan Association

(261)

A man in a heavy collar and ornate earplugs wears a graceful headdress made from leaves of corn. In his hands, he holds a bowl of fresh golden maize as an offering of gratitude to the gods. Skilled members of the Angel Ceron Artisan Association create an image in handcrafted ceramic to honour Mexico's pre-Hispanic civilizations. The headdress is similar to that of a Classic Maya sculpture from Copan that can be seen in the Peabody Museum. Their concept may be inspired by a Maya maize God image from the same archaeological site, now on display in the British Museum. However the artisans give the deity the look of an aged man.

Angel Cerón is inspired by the depiction of Tlácoc in the Ixtlilxóchitl Codex dating back to 1325-1519 AD. The powerful Aztec god of rain appears like a grand warrior holding a lightning rod and shield. His anthropomorphic presence includes a human body with a bird like visage and a grand headdress.
