Donají, poncho vs quechquemitl
Did this for Codex Black's book 2. Donají's iconic garment is actually a quechquemitl, but I explain there why I use the word "poncho" instead.
This was a February P*treon reward!
“ Este portaestandartes huasteco retrata a una deidad del pulque, puesto que la fecha dos-conejo era el día en que se le festejaba junto a esta bebida. La rigidez de la composición denota influencia mexica, pues la escultura huasteca era mucho menos rígida en periodos anteriores”.
A Huastec pulque deity with a rabbit design on its chest. The 2 rabbit day was the day in which the drink was celebrated. It’s believed to have Mexica influence in its design due to Huastec sculptures were less rigid in prior times.

Life-Death Figure
Huastec, ca. 900-1250 CE

Sandstone with traces of pigment
From the museum label:
This sculpture of a man carrying a human skeleton on his back exemplifies the dualism of life and death that permeates Huastec and Mexica (Aztec) art. Representing life, the human figure is the Aztec wind god, Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl, who created humankind and is identifiable by his J-shaped ear pendants. Representing death, the skeletal figure with a protruding heart wears a collar and skirt decorated with a half-circle motif that was associated with the sun and the planet Venus. Venus, called the morning star, was another important god, thought to pull the sun across the sky and down into the underworld. Densely patterned designs on the sculpture’s arms and legs include ears of corn, which, like the sun and Venus imagery, are related to agriculture, fertility, life, and death.
