Sacrificial Stone

from Cornell University Library

Jesús Roberto Duarte said:
Telamacatl, del Nahuatl= rueda de piedra. LA PIEDRA DE TÍZOC REPRESENTA LAS VICTORIAS DEL EMPERADOR Y FIESTAS DEDICADAS AL DIOS DEL FUEGO. Era un CUAUHXICALLI, sobre ella se ejecutaba el sacrificio del ejercicio gladiatorio; la víctima, atada sobre la piedra, con armas de plumas, debía defenderse de cuatro que le atacaban con armas de pedernal. La superficide lateral tiene una secuencia de 15 escenas, cada una conformada por un guerrero sometiendo a una deidad que personifica al señorío particularizado con un glifo toponímico. La secuencia está limitada por dos bandas horizontales, una arriba y otra abajo, que figuran respectivamente un cielo nocturno y un reptil terrestre. En forma desconcertante y como seña distintiva, una concavidad central y un profundo canal dañan la labra de la escultura, rompiendo en forma radial el disco solar de la cara superior y una de las escenas de conquista de la cara lateral. Debe ser diferenciado de otro Cuauhxicall (LA PIEDRA DE MOCTEZUMA I) muy similar www.flickr.com/photos/53461717@N08/8350701575/in/photolis...

Actually, I think this is a work by Bruce Price, not Will Price, and in NYC, not Philadelphia. -- J. Cohen, Bryn Mawr College
