Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl: The Feathered Wind God Discovered at Colle de las Escalerillas in Mexico City's National Museum of Anthropology This stunning sculpture, known as Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl, is a captivating representation of one of the most revered deities in Aztec mythology. Discovered at Colle de las Escalerillas in Mexico City, this vertical, upright figure showcases the rich cultural heritage of the pre-Columbian civilizations that once thrived in Central America. Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl is a unique amalgamation of two distinct deities: Ehecatl, the god of the wind, and Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent. The figure is adorned with intricate featherwork, symbolizing Quetzalcoatl's connection to the avian world, while the wind god's attributes, such as the smoking pot at his feet, are also present. The sculpture's vibrant colors and intricate details highlight the advanced artistic techniques of the Aztecs and the Mesoamerican cultures that influenced them. The belief in Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl and other deities was an integral part of the religious practices of the Aztecs and other Mesoamerican civilizations. These beliefs, rooted in the rich mythology of the region, played a significant role in the daily lives of the people, influencing their rituals, art, and social structures. This sculpture is a testament to the enduring legacy of the pre-Columbian civilizations and their profound impact on the cultural landscape of Mexico and Central America. The National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City is home to numerous such treasures, providing a window into the fascinating world of the ancient Mesoamerican cultures.
