dancing jaguar


No, no, it's not Tigger!! is the representation of a worship dance with the costume of a jaguar at one of the temples from the archaeological site of Copán in Honduras. The jaguar has a lot of meanings, but mainly he was the god of night. One of the creators gods and with a brave character. This sculpture is interesting because it seems like a tigger dancing disco! right? ;D
