CIPACTLI
Aztec Creator God
Crox God, the World Crocodile.
Forget the world resting on the back of a turtle. For the Aztecs, the foundation of the Earth was a large crocodile.
In fact his name was their word for any old croc, but you can tell Cipactli was something special by his size and what he’s carrying. He’s also infamous for gobbling up one of Tezcatlipoca’s feet.
