Quetzalc\u00f3atl<\/strong> fue uno de los dioses m\u00e1s importantes de las culturas mesoamericanas, cuyo origen se remonta a la cultura tolteca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Esta deidad mezcla de ave y serpiente,<\/strong> era considerado el dios m\u00e1s poderoso en distintos panteones prehisp\u00e1nicos y representaba la dualidad entre la condici\u00f3n f\u00edsica del hombre y su parte espiritual, por lo que su leyenda jug\u00f3 un papel crucial ante la llegada de los espa\u00f1oles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A continuaci\u00f3n, compartimos el mito de Quetzalc\u00f3atl, la \u201cSerpiente Emplumada\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

La leyenda de Quetzalc\u00f3atl<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

La leyenda de Quetzalc\u00f3atl<\/strong> se remonta a la civilizaci\u00f3n tolteca, una de las m\u00e1s antiguas culturas mesoamericanas. Este dios fue representado en una piedra tallada con la figura de una serpiente y un hombre a sus pies y era descrito como un hombre de tez clara, barba, cabellos rubios, con un dominio de diversas pr\u00e1cticas como la agricultura, la orfebrer\u00eda, la navegaci\u00f3n y la astronom\u00eda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Denominado \u201cCe \u00c1catl Topiltzin Quetzalc\u00f3atl\u00bb<\/strong>, este hombre lleg\u00f3 al pueblo tolteca para compartir su conocimiento con los habitantes de Tollan, la ciudad m\u00e1s importante de esta civilizaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As\u00ed,\u00a0Quetzalc\u00f3atl<\/strong>\u00a0se gan\u00f3 el respeto entre los toltecas, quienes lo llamaron \u201cSerpiente Emplumada\u201d, haciendo referencia al dios de la naturaleza y la vegetaci\u00f3n, convirti\u00e9ndose en una especie de gobernante y semidi\u00f3s para esta cultura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfCu\u00e1l es la historia de Quetzalc\u00f3atl seg\u00fan los aztecas?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

La historia de Quetzalc\u00f3atl<\/strong> seg\u00fan la cosmovisi\u00f3n azteca, cuenta que Tonacatecuhtli y Tonacac\u00edhuatl estaban casados y crearon la mitad del mundo. Estos dejaron que la otra mitad fuera obra de dos de sus dos hijos: Quetzalc\u00f3atl<\/strong> y Tezcatlipoca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mientras Quetzalc\u00f3atl<\/strong> se caracterizaba por su sabidur\u00eda, Tezcatlipoca ten\u00eda un car\u00e1cter agresivo. As\u00ed, la rivalidad entre los dos hermanos fue responsable de la creaci\u00f3n y destrucci\u00f3n de cuatro eras o soles en este mundo, por lo que actualmente vivimos en la era del Quinto Sol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfA qu\u00e9 cultura perteneci\u00f3 Quetzalc\u00f3atl?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dado que el mito de Quetzalc\u00f3atl<\/strong> se extendi\u00f3 por distintas culturas mesoamericanas, este era considerado el dios m\u00e1s poderoso para los teotihuacanos, mexicas, toltecas, olmecas y mayas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As\u00ed, Quetzalc\u00f3atl<\/strong> fue conocido como Kukulk\u00e1n<\/strong> para los mayas, Gucumatz<\/strong> para los mayas quich\u00e9s de Guatemala y Eh\u00e9catl<\/strong> para los huastecos de la costa del Golfo, y se consideraba el dios de los vientos y la lluvia, el creador del mundo y la humanidad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El culto a esta deidad se extendi\u00f3 tambi\u00e9n hasta el imperio azteca, en donde se le asoci\u00f3 con el planeta Venus y se le consideraba dios del aprendizaje, la ciencia, las artes, los oficios y la agricultura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Actualmente es posible visitar diversas zonas arqueol\u00f3gicas<\/a> que incluyen alg\u00fan templo dedicado a Quetzalc\u00f3atl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dentro de la cosmovisi\u00f3n azteca, Quetzalc\u00f3atl estaba destinado a regresar en alg\u00fan momento de la historia para reclamar su trono. Wikipedia<\/sub><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
