Moxijia Fire Snake Stone Carving
This sculpture showcases all the features of the fire snake Xiuhcoatl, blending reality and mythical creatures, including its snake head, short legs, claws, and curved nose. The end of the tail of the fire snake is composed of the traditional Mexican year symbol (xihuitl): a triangle resembling a sun ray symbol and two intertwined trapezoids. This work may be used to decorate buildings. According to Mexican antique collector Guillermo Dupex, it comes from Texcoco, a city on the east coast of Lake Mexico where the Mexican capital of Tenochtitlan was founded. This sculpture is currently located at the British Museum
