Chalca culture Late osclassic, A.D. 1250-121 Tlamanalco, State of Mexico Xochipilli is the god of art, games, beauty, dance, flowers, and song in Aztec mythology. His name contains the Nahuatl words xochitl (“flower”) and pilli (either “prince” or “child”), and hence means “flower prince”. As the patron of writing and painting, he was called Chicomexochitl the “Seven-flower,” but he could also be referred to as Macuilxochitl “Five-flower.” His wife is the human girl Mayahuel, and his twin sister is Xochiquetzal. As one of the gods responsible for fertility and agricultural produce, he is also associated with Tlaloc (god of rain), and Cinteotl (god of maize). Xochipilli may correspond to the Tonsured Maize God among the Classic Mayas. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xochipilli
