    MORE ON Jaguar
    The jaguar regarded in mythology as the ‘master of animals’, and spiritual lord of the powers of fertility in the natural world. All animals are the jaguar’s prey, but it is prey to none. Only human beings kill jaguars, which may explain why Native Americans regard humans and jaguars as spiritual equals. Thinking about the world in this traditional way, every man carries the jaguar within himself, and every jaguar may be a man in disguise. It is no wonder then that the jaguar creates anxiety and fear when suddenly encountered in the depths of the tropical rain forest.
    These powerful ancestral beliefs survived into later Postclassic Maya times, where it is recorded that ‘spreading the jaguar skin’ was a sign for war, and during the Spanish colonial period, the ‘jaguar mat’ was the seat of authority in a Maya council.
    Classic Maya rulers believed that using the jaguar’s name gave them prestige, and so there are examples where it has been attached to a king’s royal title. Similarly in death, archaeological evidence from Uaxactún and Kaminaljuyu in Guatemala, and Altun Ha in Belize reveals that Maya kings were buried with the animal’s skin, claws, and fangs.
    The jaguar was a favourite symbol in Aztec representations of war. Aztec names which included the term ocelotl were used to describe brave warriors – in this way, ocelopetlatl and oceloyotl described especially brave warriors, such as those of the high-status Jaguar Warrior Society. In Aztec mythology and astrology, the jaguar also played an important role, as it was believed that those born under the calendrical sign ocelotl shared the jaguar’s aggressive nature and would become brave warriors.
    During the sixteenth century, sorcerers known as nahuallis were accused by the Spanish of murder, insurrection, and, most interestingly, of changing into jaguars. The most famous of these sorcerers was Martín Ocelotl, who took the Aztec name for jaguar as his own. He was denounced to the Holy Inquisition in 1536 and accused of devil worship, predicting the rains, and transforming himself into the great spotted cat.
