Coatlicue statue : ウィキペディア英語版 | Coatlicue statue
The Coatlicue statue is a 2.7 metre (8.9 ft) tall andesite statue usually identified with the Aztec goddess Coatlicue ("snakes-her-skirt"). It is currently located in the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. On the bottom of the statue, not normally visible, is a carving of Tlaltecuhtli ("earth-lord"). ==Discovery== The statue was discovered in the main plaza of Mexico City on 13 August 1790. The sun stone (also known as the "calendar stone") was found nearby on 17 December. The first scholar to study the statue was Antonio de León y Gama, who incorrectly identified the god depicted as "Teoyamiqui" (i.e. Teoyaomiqui).
