The second picture of the statue sitting on a box I believe to be an urn of some sort. At least that’s what I have been told. If you shake it something is inside. The first picture has some sort of stamp on the bottom. I can’t make out what it says or is. Any help or direction you could point me in would be helpful. Thanks, Paul.’

It is Huehueteotl. And they did believe in gods number two and there is a word for it the word is teotl. I’ve been researching these people since I was only 11years old.

The picture on the right is a mexican essence. Most people would say god, but aztecs did not believe in gods. As the word “god” doesn’t exist in nahuatl. His name was Huehueteotl.

Can you take a pic of the stamp on the bottom? That can give us more clues.
