Religion:Itztli

From HandWiki

In Aztec mythology, Itzli (or Itztli) was a god of stone, particularly in the shape of a sacrificial knife. He was one of nine gods of the nocturnal sky and the Underworld.[1] He served Tezcatlipoca as the god of the Second Hour of the Night. He is associated with Chalchiuhtlicue and Tlazolteotl.[2] Itzli was therefore the god of sacrifice and stone knives.
