Aztec Religion (Corn)
|
Aztec farmers believed that maize, a form of corn, contained many spirits. The most important of these is thought to be the god Cinteotl (Sin-tay-otl). Ceremonies were held to worship the many forms of Cinteotl from the planting stage through to the harvest. The photomicrograph illustrates crystallites from an extract of whole corn. |
