Jaguar | Huichol Art
Beaded Jaguar Wooden Sculpture, Handmade by indigenous Artisans in Yucatan, Mexico.
The Maya viewed the Jaguar as 'Balam', a guardian of the Underworld and a mystical entity embodying strength and night-time prowess. Kings and nobles wore jaguar motifs to channel its power.
For the Aztecs, the jaguar represented military might. Elite 'Jaguar Warriors' donned jaguar skins in battle, symbolizing stealth and strength. The god Tezcatlipoca, associated with jaguars, embodied night, sorcery, and earth.
This majestic creature was a central figure in both cultures, symbolizing not just physical strength but also a deep spiritual connection to the natural and mystical worlds.
