Quetzalcoatl
built 654 days ago
Quetzalcoatl's life is fascinating enough, but his name is a topic unto itself. His name translates variously to "plumed serpents," "green-feathered-serpent," or "serpent of precious feathers." They all suggest the combination of "quetzal," a beautiful, green Guatemalan bird, and "coatl," meaning serpent.
