TONALAMATL

TONALAMATL BALTHAZAR

I created this collection of trecena images for my 1993 book CELEBRATE NATIVE AMERICA! based largely on the iconography of Codex Nuttall. The patrons of the trecenas are the authentic deities–except for the last (Rabbit) trecena for which the patron is supposed to be Itzli (Flint), the sacrificial knife. I was artistically offended and substituted my favorite god, Xochipilli, the Prince of Flowers. Mea culpa!

TONALAMATL BORGIA (which I re-created from Codex Borgia)
