Quetzalcoatl
In Aztec religion, Quetzalcoatl (IPA: [ketsalˈkoː.aːtɬ]) was a god of wind, creativity, fertility, and the patron god of the city of Cholula. Today Quetzalcoatl is the most well-known Aztec deity, and is often thought to have been the principal Aztec god. In reality, Quetzalcoatl was just one god in a pantheon of gods, not considered superior to the others.[1]
The god Quetzalcoatl was sometimes conflated with Topiltzin Ce Acatl Quetzalcoatl, a semi-legendary 10th century Toltec ruler.
