CHALMECATECUHTLI
Aztec Sacrifice God
Also known as Chalmecateuctli
Underworld God of Sacrifices
A somewhat obscure deity who rules one of the nine levels of the Underworld. We are happy for him to remain obscure if that’s what he wants – you do not argue with Hell Gods of Sacrifice. Particularly not Aztec ones with all those sharp knives lying around.
Chalmecatecuhtli is probably a manifestation of Underworld CEO Mictlantecuhtli. He also features in the Aztec calendar as Lord of Day Eleven (Soul Spirit department). He is helped in his endeavors by a screeching red macaw.
