Historical Background

In Aztec mythology, Xolotl was the god of lightning who acted as a psychopomp (the person who escorts the dead to the underworld. Anubis and Hermes/Mercury were also psychopomps). Xolotl would guide the dead to Mictlan, the Aztec underworld, a journey which took 4 years (everyone who died except warriors slain in battle, people struck by lightning, and women who died in childbirth went to Mictlan). He was also the god of fire and bad luck. He was considered the patron of the Ulama (Mesoamerican ball game). One of his titles was Lord of the Evening Star. He would guard the Sun on its night time journey through the underworld (similar to Set guarding Ra from Apep in the underworld in Egyptian mythology). He also brought humanity out of the underworld (similar to the Spider Woman in Native American mythologies from the Desert Southwest) and also brought fire to humanity (similar to Prometheus of Greek mythology). Xolotl was commonly depicted as a skeleton or a dog-headed human. Xolotl means "dog" or "animal" in Nahuatl (language of the Aztecs).
