Description

The Aztec Calendar Stone and La Piedra del Sol reflect the astronomy and mythology of the Aztecs. It was laid upon the platform of the Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlán before the shrines to Huitzilopochtli, and Tlaloc. Upon the stone, the Aztecs offered thousands of human sacrifices. The four rectangles of the stone represent four previous epochs, each with its own sun which the Aztecs believed were destroyed by jaguars, hurricanes, floods, and volcanoes. At the center of the calendar is the sun Tonatiuh, which they believed presided over the fifth and current epoch. They feared that earthquakes would destroy him, obliterating the universe for all time, if they displeased him. In each eagle claw he clutches a human heart, meant to feed him as he travels across the sky each day.
