Spiritual Guidance Dog - Mexican Culture

Description

To the ancient Mayans and Aztecs, man's best friend was also a hairless healer, not very attractive in appearance, as well as an occasional source of food and, more importantly, a guide in the underworld. The name of the xoloitzcuintli, which is sometimes also called the Mexican hairless dog, comes from two words in the ancient language of the Aztecs: Xólotl, god of sunset and death, and itzcuintli, or dog. According to Aztec belief, the dog of Xólotl had been created by the god to protect the living and guide the souls of the dead through the dangerous Mictlán, the underworld.
