"The headdresses worn by Mayan kings, lords, and warriors were among the most elaborate status
symbols ever devised. Concocted of exotic items (taken) from around the region—including parrot and
macaw feathers, jaguar pelts, seashells, and jade—they told of men who received reverent tribute from
those who depended on their ability]. Indeed, the headdresses of commanding figures often bore the
features of a god, from whose gaping mouth the mortal's face would emerge. Such crowns reflected
the Mayan conviction that on ceremonial occasions their leaderspecame one with the gods."
