	Aztecs and Mayas religion
		With the Maya peoples the original nature and agrarian deities were the ancient gods, whereas the gods they had adopted from the Toltects, like the great god Quetzalcoatl (Plumed Serpent), were the younger ones, who were more involved in the cosmic and socio-cultural aspects of their civilization.
		Yacatecuhtli, the god of the merchants, was probably one of the forms in which Quetzalcoatl was worshipped.
		Examples are the gods Yacatecuhtli (the god of the merchants) and Huitzilopochtli (the god of the Azteca-Mcxica), who have been mentioned before.

		I am of the pochteca and am proud to serve my gods and lords faithfully in war and sacrifice, as my father did before me. I have been very successful and have been able to provide my wife and two (soon to be three) children a comfortable life.
		It is wise to say that the god Yacatecuhtli, looks generously upon me and I owe all to him (Smith, 213).
		I was worried to leave on such a long expedition when my wife was so close to bearing our third child, but after consulting with the calendar and the priests of my patron god, Yacatecuhtli, it was determined that the day we left on was surely the luckiest (Smith,256).

		Taube (1992:88) suggests that the Maya God M derives from the Central Mexican god Yacatecuhtli, the god of merchants.
		Like the image of God M in the Santa Rita murals, Yacatecuhtli has an elongated nose but lacks fl coloring.
		The yellow markings around this figure's mouth associate him with the jaguar, an attribute that arose during the Post-Classic period and was originally associated with God L, a Maya merchant god popular during the Classic period (Taube 1992:92).
