About this clipart
This highly detailed bas-relief, carved from volcanic stone around 1479 CE, represents the Aztec understanding of time, cosmology, and divine order. The central figure is Tonatiuh, the sun god, with his tongue extended as a sacrificial knife, flanked by four previous cosmic eras (Suns) and outer rings encoding the 260-day ritual calendar (Tonalpohualli) and 365-day solar year (Xiuhpohualli). Found in Mexico City’s Templo Mayor area, it reflects both religious devotion and political power.
