Description:
Burning Copal incense in the body of the Xantil produced a dense sweet smoke which emerges from his mouth. Xochipilli-Macuilxochitl, the young solar diety of sensuality, will appear to be chanting or singing. The god wears a bird-hed helmet with a crest, a long nose bar, a pair of round ear ornaments, a white collar, bracelets and knotted sandals.
