This ceramic sculpture represents the god Xipe T ó tec ("Our master, the skinned man"). It was discovered by Swedish archaeologists in 1932. This sculpture is currently housed in the Teotihuacan exhibition hall of the National Museum of Anthropology (MNA) in Mexico. Xipe T ó tec is the god of life, death, and resurrection in Mexican culture, as well as the god of agriculture, plants, the East, disease, and goldsmiths. This sculpture has two different human bodies: a complete human body below, and a victim's skin and some tissues above.
