中文注释:一个阿芝台克黄铜匠制作的阿芝台克雨神特拉洛克被放置在市中心的玛雅遗迹(古代祭祀)馆里。特拉洛克神与阿芝台克众神一样富于感情,他有时会降雨滋养庄稼,有时却会制造出干旱和飓风,并要求以祭祀儿童来平息灾害。图片为《国家地理杂志》2003年11/12月号“墨西哥阳光之下”而摄,未刊发。 作者: Macduff Everton

Like many Aztec deities, Tlaloc was both benevolent and wrathful, sending rain to nourish crops but also unleashing drought and hurricanes and demanding appeasement in the form of sacrificed children.
