Coyote dancer (or Huehuecoyotl priest) and priests preparing the Ochpaniztli ritual, Cihuateocalli (Temple of goddess Toci), Tenochtitlan, 1491
Primarily based on Codex Borbonicus.
I originally intended to draw the dancer as a generic dog. But after finding out that the coyote dancer in the Codex Borbonicus could be the Huehuecoyotl's ixiptla (impersonator/avatar), I decided to draw Xochimazatl instead.
