La obra de Arthania (en oleos sobre lienzo) supera las 13000 unidades(medida radiestésica), por lo que entra de lleno en el campo emocional, sus efectos curativos puede que sean debidos precisamente a esto, es decir, como armonizadores del sistema nervioso central, a través de él, afecta positivamente a los distintos sistemas orgánicos. La pintura de Arthania, en virtud de su emisión de forma, puede ser un factor armonizador de primera magnitud. Os invito a disfrutar de esta sorprendente muestra desde una actitud positiva, serena, abierta, desde el fluir, desde la receptividad, desde el silencio. Este es el camino más seguro para percibir los impulsos curativosy transformadores que se ocultan tras los sutiles velos de la obra de Arthania.

Explicación sobre la obra pictórica de ARTHANIA

 

La energía que rodea al ser humano está por todas partes, por ello es adecuado rodearse de obras bellas y armoniosas,

ya que, todo objeto, despide ondas: positivas, neutras o negativas.

 

Esta obra pictórica,comienza con seguros trazos circulares, ondulaciones que consiguen fascinantes formas y colores. Fractales de una policromía exquisita.

 

Más los dibujos, también de formas onduladas, "del sonido", inspirados en experiencias internas, vividas en otros espacios-tiempo.

 

En suproximidad, eleva la frecuencia vibratoria personal y del entorno. Mirando a corta distancia, ayuda adesarrollar la concentración en lo intangible.

 

Los tonos intensos vivos vitalizan, los suaves relajan, a veces según la obra persona o situación actúan a la vez.

Ensu proximidad limpian el campo de energía personal y del entorno, por ser transmutador de energías nocivas.

Produce efectos benéficos: en las personas animales y plantas, ya que, emanan energías positivas.

Aconsejable en decoración. Dan un toque de alegría y la vez de elegancia. Crean una atmósfera agradable... Optimizan el espacio.

 

Este arte expresa, estados internos, sentimientos de mi Alma, y ¡Ser! basados en experiencias elevadas, en otros mundos ínter-dimensionales...

 

Emiten ondas de formas positivas...

Thaipusam actually celebrates the birthday of the Hindu deity Subramaniam. On this occasion, Hindus show the sincerity of their faith. It is a time for making and fulfilling vows. Devotees pray for divine help and make vows. When their prayers are answered, they fulfil their vows.

 

To do this, a devotee would pierce his cheeks, tongue, face or other suitable body parts with sharp objects. Next his friends or relatives load a *kavadi on his shoulder. Finally, in a trance-like manner, he goes on a 4km journey of faith.

 

Others, including young children, might join the procession carrying only milk pots. The Thaipusam Singapore procession starts at the Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple on Serangoon Road and ends at the Sri Thandayuthapani Temple on Tank Road.

 

At first look, one might think that the festival starts at one temple and ends at another. Not so. Many of the devotees start fasting a month before the Thaipusam Singapore festivities. Others fast a week. Yet others three days.

 

A Hindu friend said this to me, "If you are going to put a 12-inch skewer through your cheeks and a hundred spikes in your chest, you'd better take your fast seriously!"

 

* A kavadi is a cage-like structure carried by devotees during the Thaipusam Festival.

 

It is traditionally decorated with peacock feathers and aluminium plates which show images of Hindu deities. Sharp spikes criss-cross its lower section.

 

An elaborate kavadi might weigh up to 15kg! It is quite something just to lift it. But these chaps I saw actually walked with them for 4km - kavadis, skewers, hooks, spikes and all!

 

Some of them even skipped and danced with their kavadis. Either they have great endurance or they have some supernatural help.

NYC IxDA - The 7-Minute IxD Soapbox (a.k.a. Pecha Kucha)

 

2007-11-13 / Method / SoHo, NYC

 

At this fast-paced event, we're giving seven people a chance to share their ideas — for just seven minutes each. The only rule is that topic must relate to interaction design. Of course, if you simply prefer to take it all in, you're welcome to participate as an audience member.

 

TOPICS

Anything goes, as long as it's related to interaction design or user experience. Present some of your work; talk about a design problem you're facing; rant about a device you don't like; effuse about your favorite product; share some results from a usability test; question the value of market research in product development; relate an experience with redesigning a product. If you don't want to soapbox alone pair up with a friend or colleague. Heck, you could even do a parody of your favorite IxD guru, if you're so inclined! If it's something you're interested in, chances are very high we're interested too.

 

GOAL

To connect people in our diverse and powerful community who are interested in having their interaction design neurons stimulated. This event will be an extraordinary grab-bag of local voices. Practice your speaking and presenting skills! Spark some debate! Make new friends and enemies! Gain new insights!

 

FORMAT

Speakers may use presentation slides, show off short multimedia, demonstrate something online, or just shoot from the hip. Just make sure it's 7 minutes and no longer. After the seven soaps, we'll hold Q&A and/or discussion. Caveat: Nomenclature debates about our roles and what we call ourselves as practitioners (IA, UX, IxD, HCI, CHI, UCD, etc.) will be reserved for anyone wishing to go to the nearest pub after the event.

Hastings is a town and Borough on the coast of East Sussex in England. It includes originally separate settlements, as well as the inevitable growth of the town through the building of new estates.

 

In historical terms, Hastings can claim fame through its connection with the Norman conquest of England; and also because it became one of the medieval Cinque Ports. Hastings was, for centuries, an important fishing port; although much reduced, it has the largest beach-based fishing fleet in England. As with many other such places, the town became a watering place in the 1760s, and then, with the coming of the railway, a seaside resort.

 

The Net Huts - These tarred and weatherboarded structures date from the 17th century, before the Stade developed. At this time, there was nowhere to spread the nets to dry so they were made as tall as possible to give Fisherman enough space. Restored with a Heritage Lottery Grant, they're now one of the town's most historic landmarks.

 

The Stade - The stretch of shingle beach from which the fishing fleet launches has been known as 'The Stade' (the Saxon term for 'landing place') for over a thousand years.

Though it looks small, George Mason's home is quite spacious inside. One of my favourite features was the beautiful center passage or hallway; the front and back doors are, as was common in this style of home, directly across from each other. When both doors were opened, not only was the broad center hallway between the doors cooled, fresh, cool air circulated through the other rooms in the house as well. Functionality aside, though, it is a lovely thing, the main hall.

 

By the way, Mason, his architect, and his groundsmen did a divine job of designing the home in coordination with the grounds. For one thing, the house was meant to stand alone, with no mature trees growing near it; according to the website, "Mason meant it to be seen standing isolated in space". The black-heart cherry tree-lined drive lead your eyes to the home along a twelve-foot-wide carriage drive; the Palladian portico you see is also twelve feet wide, as is Gunston Hall's aforementioned center passage. The rear, riverfront portico is twelve feet wide, as is the gravel path through the center of the rear garden leading toward the south and the Potomac river. The effect is quite beautiful.

 

The small building you see on the left side of the frame is the kitchen. The location was interesting to me, because to get to the dining room, slaves would bring the food into the hallway from the kitchen yard (there is a door and hallway leading from the center passage to the kitchen yard), past the Mr. and Mrs. Mason's bedroom on one side and the informal family dining/sitting room on the other, across the great hall, and into the dining room. Weird.

ENGLISH

The Indian Peafowl, Pavo cristatus, also known as the Common Peafowl or the Blue Peafowl, is one of the species of bird in the genus Pavo of the Phasianidae family known as peafowl. The Indian Peafowl is a resident breeder in the Indian subcontinent. The peacock is the national bird of India.

 

The species is found in dry semi-desert grasslands, scrub and deciduous forests. It forages and nests on the ground but roosts on top of trees. It eats mainly seeds, but also some insects, fruits and reptiles.

 

Peafowl are most notable for the male's extravagant display feathers which, despite actually growing from their back, are known as a 'tail' or a train. This train is in reality not the tail but the enormously elongated upper tail coverts. The tail itself is brown and short as in the peahen. They are a result of sexual selection and are displayed as part of courtship.

CASTELLANO

Pavo cristatus (Pavo real, Pavo real de la India, o Pavo real de pecho azul) es una de las dos especies de aves pertenecientes al género Pavo, que desde tiempos antiguos destacó entre los animales admirados por el hombre a causa del extraordinario abanico policromado que constituye la cola de los machos.

 

El pavo cristatus es una especie sexualmente dimórfica. Su longevidad es de aproximadamente 15 años, aunque se conocen casos de especímenes que vivieron en cautiverio más de 20 años.

 

Provisto de un pico fuerte, su cabeza esta cubierta de un plumaje azul brillante y coronada por un copete de plumas. El macho de la especie alcanza una longitud de 2,20 m y un peso de hasta 5 Kg: Su plumaje de color azul iridiscente con reflejos verdosos es característica, pero sin duda el principal atractivo lo constituyen sus más de cien plumas coberteras de hasta 2 m de longitud, que -al desplegarse - forman un majestuoso abanico tachonado por ocelos en tonos dorado, azul y verde.

 

Estrictamente el abanico no es la "cola" ni las alas del animal-de color pardo- se presenta por atrás y abajo de las coberteras, aunque pasa desapercibida ante la magnificencia del penacho desplegado. El macho puede abrirlo a partir de los tres años de edad, y las coberteras se renuevan anualmente. Por esta causa durante el otoño los machos quedan privados de su fastuoso adorno.

Ahmed working on his Wushu moves in a courtyard in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

 

Ahmed put out a casting call on Model Mayhem asking for a photographer to catch his martial arts moves. I answered the call and we set this up. It was a heck of a walk from the hotel I was in but it was very much worth it, we shot for an hour and a half and I have quite a few usable images from it.

 

I was very fortunate we had an overcast day, it only took a flash or two on 1/4 power to completely control the ambient light and make it look like we shot in the middle of the night, it was about 5pm.

('sooc' as usual)

 

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,

You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,

May you never take one single breath for granted,

GOD forbid love ever leave you empty handed,

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens,

Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

 

I hope you dance....I hope you dance.

 

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,

Never settle for the path of least resistance

Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin',

Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',

Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,

When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,

Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

 

I hope you dance....I hope you dance.

The great thing about Wales is that all trails lead to a pub.

And because I'm not too good on my feet at the moment,,,I'm tending to see more pub than trail.

Seeing as my daughter knows how to handle a screwmount Leica, I get to be in some of the photographs when she's around too. This shot looks like it's 6x6 format, but that's because it was the last shot on the roll, and for some reason the right hand edge got wrecked, so I had to crop it.

Of course, all the writing in Wales and the Welsh Language (like on the front of this pub) is back to front, relative to English, because we read written Welsh from right to left, like the peoples of The Levant, from whom, as Welsh people, we are all descended.

In the far West of Wales, in Cardyland, they often speak it backwards too, though this practice is slowly dying out as free schooling for children over 8 years old spreads there, thanks to the enlightened policies of our fairly recent and independent Welsh Assembly Government. Also, they wish to avoid the label of Satanism.

Unlike other countries, which either drive on the left or right hand side of the road, in our little but very ancient country, we drive on both, alternating between each side depending on the phase of the moon, and whether the month has a letter 'R' (written backwards) in it or not.

It's all to do with Welsh Druidism and the ancient rights of cattle drovers.

Santes Creus nace en espíritu el 1150, cuando la familia de los Montcada cede la primera ubicación del monasterio en Valldaura del Vallès. La primera fecha, pero, de posesión del lugar de Santes Creus en el valle del Gaià la encontramos el 1158. Dadas las disensiones jurisdiccionales entre el obispado de Barcelona y el arzobispado de Tarragona, el monasterio fue víctima de un pleito que motivó que su adscripción fuese exenta de ninguna diócesis. La fachada principal de la iglesia, coronada por almenas, data del siglo XII y presenta una portalada románica con un gran ventanal gótico. La planta es de cruz latina, queda cerrada por detrás del altar y retablo mayor, de Josep Tremulles (siglo XVII), con un gran rosetón. Tiene además tres robustas naves y cinco capillas abacales, muy cerca del altar mayor se localizan las tumbas de Pere II el Gran (siglo XIII) por un lado, y de Jaume II y Blanca d'Anjou (siglo XV) por el otro. El cenobio convertido en panteón real por el primero de estos reyes fue fortificado durante los siglos XIV y XV. El monasterio conserva dos claustros, el de la entrada turística que es gótica y reemplazo uno de anterior románico, del cual sólo queda el templete del lavatorio.

 

Santes Creus spirit born in 1150, when the Montcada family gave the first location of the monastery in Valldaura del Vallès. The first date, but in possession of the place of Santes Creus in the valley of Gaia we find the 1158. Given the jurisdictional disagreements between the bishop of the archdiocese of Barcelona and Tarragona, the monastery was the victim of a lawsuit that led to his secondment was free of any diocese. The main facade of the church, surmounted by battlements, XII century Romanesque doorway and features a large window with a Gothic. The plant is a Latin cross, is closed behind the altar and reredos, Josep Tremulles (seventeenth century), with a large rosette. Also has three sturdy ships and five chapels abacales, near the main altar are located the tombs of Pere II the Great (thirteenth century) on the one hand, and of James II and Blanche d'Anjou (XV century) on the other. The monastery converted into a royal pantheon by the first of these kings was fortified during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The monastery preserves two cloisters, the tourist entry replacement is Gothic and Romanesque previous one, which is the only temple of the washing.

Today I am officially a published author!

Only available here and only for a limited time!!

From a frozen ice cave deep within the Applachian Mountains....here come the Polar Skull Bunnies! They are just as cute but so much more rare than other Skull Bunnies. They love the cold and snow so they only come out in the winter. Their polka dot & lavendar fur keeps them warm during their chilly frolicks. But for the rest of the year they hide in their cave, so catch one while you can!

 

These bunnies are LIMITED EDITION, which means THEY WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE FOR A LIMITED TIME! Of course, being limited edition means they also come with a signed & numbered tag from Spooky Daddy himself.

 

But just like their cousins the regular Skull Bunnies each one is handmade out of super soft fleece with spooky love and attention to detail.

 

Since they are handmade no 2 are ever exactly the same. But they all are approx. 11 inches and filled with squishy polyfill. The eyes and faces are carefully machine sewn for duriblity.

 

If your Skull Bunny gets dirty don't worry you can easily spot clean them with a wet washcloth. Or if they get absolutely filthy just tie them up in a pillow case and toss them in the washer on a cold gentle cycle. And then dry them on low and they will be good and spooky as new and smellin real nice!

 

While awaiting the arrival of your new pal, you may choose to prepare for him. Here's a handy list of things you can do:

 

1.) Be sure to have a dark spot for him to hide in when he's feeling shy.

 

2.) Also, provide him with a nice sunny spot to frolick in when he's feeling peppy. You should also remember that he will only frolick when he's alone, so the sunny spot should be left attended for one half-to one hour per day.

 

3.) Provide some fake snow (or salt will work in a pinch) to recreate his natural habitat. HOWEVER, IT IS STRONGLY ADVISED AGAINST PLACING YOUR SKULL BUNNY IN A MAYONNAISE JAR. I know it'd a little snow globe but please resist the urge to contain his cuteness. He will thank you for it.

 

4.) Stop vacuuming underneath your bed. Your Skull Bunny will roam late at night, scouring your home for cookie crumbs (which are his sole source of sustinance.) Also, if you do not eat cookies near or in your bed, you should begin this practice 1-2 days prior to your Skull Bunny's arrival.

 

Taking these steps will ensure you and your Skull Bunny have a happy, harmoniously spooky life together!

"Il complesso de La Venaria Reale è un unicum ambientale-architettonico dal fascino straordinario, uno spazio immenso, vario e suggestivo.

La Venaria Reale è il Borgo antico cittadino, scrigno di eventi e vicissitudini storiche; è l'imponente Reggia barocca che, con i suoi vasti Giardini, rappresenta uno dei più significativi esempi della magnificenza dell'architettura e dell'arte del XVII e XVIII secolo; è il Parco de La Mandria, una della maggiori realtà di tutela ambientale europea in cui vivono liberamente numerose specie di animali selvatici e domestici, e dove è custodito un notevole patrimonio storico-architettonico.

 

I nuovi splendori e la strepitosa qualità delle architetture della Reggia restaurata, l'immensità e la bellezza dei Giardini e degli spazi naturali del Parco, consentono di trascorrere amabilmente il proprio tempo immergendosi in sensazioni nuove e cogliendo esperienze diverse, secondo una concezione moderna ed alla portata di tutti del "gusto", del "loisir" e dell'"arte di vivere".

 

La Reggia di Venaria Reale e la residenza de La Mandria sono stati dichiarati dall'Unesco Patrimonio dell'Umanità."

 

da www.lavenaria.it

 

"The Venaria Reale site is a unique environmental and architectural experience of extraordinary interest. It is an immense, varied and imposing space where the visitor cannot help feeling drawn into the magic atmosphere of cultural attractions and amusements that were the pastimes of nobility.

Venaria Reale and the old market town represent a treasure trove of historic events and trials and tribulations. We sense this in the imposing baroque palace, with its vast gardens, one of the most significant examples of the magnificence of architecture and art in the 17th and 18th centuries. We sense it, too, in the La Mandria Park, one of the finest examples of European environmental havens where numerous species of both domestic and wild animals live in complete freedom, and where a significant legacy of historic and architectural wealth is preserved.

 

The new splendours and exceptional quality of the architecture of the restored ‘Reggia’ palace, the immensity and beauty of the gardens and natural spaces in the park allow visitors the opportunity to spend their time immersed in new sensations, savouring new experiences and enjoying the modern concept - accessible to all - of “taste”, “leisure time” and the “art of living”.

 

The ‘Reggia di Venaria Reale’ royal palace and the residence of La Mandria have been declared “World Heritage” sites by UNESCO."

still sick. and this was as much as i was going to do for a 365 today; a photo of my exact point-of-view for the last couple days.

 

i'm all for being a couch potato but it sucks when you SHOULD be a couch potato.

this is what i've been doing for the last two days; sittin here on my couch with molly and olly drinking a shit ton of tea and netflixin' it up (I <3 NETFLIX). on the tv there its alfred hitchcocks' 'number seventeen'. i think hes amazing- i love his movies. i watched a total of four of em today.

i would have much rather been out with my derby girls today though. =(

 

as much as being sick sucks, i almost kinda appreciate it (kinda weird, i know).

being sick reminds me of my childhood. its not like i was excessively sick as a child or anything, but it does. as to why- i'm not exactly sure. i think it has something to do with the fact that, when i was sick, that was really the only time i felt comfortable asking for help... theres more to it though.

but i guess, these days, its a good reminder that it is in fact perfectly fine (and healthy) to ask for help when i could use it.

 

...i want ice cream.

a tabaco tras una noche de fiesta o ver un delicioso plato de comida estropeado por el cigarrillo que fuman en la mesa de al lado, son situaciones que

parecen estar cerca de evitarse en los próximos meses. ¿será esto posible?

This cottage was apparently built by Henry Hersey (1795-1866) and his son, also Henry (1827-1893), possibly c. 1860, one of several in the area which were built by them. The Herseys were carpenters and bought sections 815 and 1116 prior to the 1860s, building a row of two-roomed cottages which were let for 3 shillings a week. Two larger, four-roomed cottages remain: this property and a house of the corner of Schulze and Gorge Road on section 1116.

 

In 1860 the cottage was the scene of a crime:

 

Adolph C. A. Herse was indicted for stealing 28 bunches of onions, value 2s., the property of his master, Henry Hersey, jun., at the Fifth Creek, on the 14th August last.

 

The prisoner had been in the employment of the prosecutor, who is a market gardener, at the Fifth Creek, and on the day named visited the sleeping apartment of the prisoner, a stable detached from the prosecutor's residence, and there, under the bed, discovered 28 bunches of onions. The prosecutor then, with a person named Sanders, put themselves in ambush to watch the proceedings of the prisoner, to see what he would do with the onions; but neither of them being able to detect the prisoner go into the stable again or leave it, both of them, after being on the look-out for several hours, returned to the prisoner's bed, but found the onions gone. On being spoken to the next day some words passed between prisoner and prosecutor, and those words the prosecutor construed into an admission of the prisoner that he took the onions.

 

The prosecutor, to-day, said that when he first saw the prisoner the next morning, he said to him, "How about the onions?" which at first he denied having taken, but afterwards admitted to have have taken them for the purpose of giving to a poor fellow out of work, lately in the employ of the Waterworks Commissioner, and which he had given him to sell for himself. When he first made the admission he said they were damaged, and that he had thrown them in the creek, and then went to the creek and brought some rotten ones which he (prosecutor) told him were not the same he had seen under the bed. In answer to His Honor, the prosecutor confessed he could not distinctly remember the exact replies the prisoner made to him when he questioned him about the onions.

 

John Sanders gave evidence of the interview between the prosecutor and prisoner. He confirmed the prosecutor's evidence that he only asked the prisoner "how about the onions?" He did not hear him charge the prisoner with stealing them.

 

The prisoner handed in a written defence, stating that he took the onions to give to a poor man, and that when his master found it out, he said he would forgive him if he would remain and work, which he did for several days after, and then wishing to get paid his wages, he asked for them, which the prosecutor refused to give. He then went to a lawyer to get his wages for him, who sent a letter to his master demanding them, and as soon as he received the letter, he went and laid the information against him. The statement added that the prosecution was only instituted to keep the prisoner out of his wages.

 

His Honor summed up, directing the Jury that the taking had been proved, and, therefore, the only question for their consideration was, whether the onions were taken with the intention to steal; and upon that question the must important part of the evidence was, that the next morning, when the prosecutor spoke to the prisoner, he did not tell him he had stolen the onions; but only asked "how about them?" shewing that - at that time, even the prosecutor did not think they were stolen. It would have been a very different matter altogether, said His Honor, if the prosecutor had said to the prisoner, "You have stolen my onions;" then any answers made by the prisoner to that charge, amounting to a confession, could be received as an admission of his guilt; but he thought both the conduct of the prisoner and the prosecutor did not amount to a supposition that the prisoner intended to steal. There was no doubt the prisoner took the onions, and it appeared he gave his master's property away to a man out of a work of charity, which he had no right to do, but that fact militated against the supposition that he intended to steal them from his master.

 

The Jury acquitted the prisoner.

Cuando el bueno de armstrong dio aquellos pasos

todos registramos cómo se movía

tosco / pesado / en un suelo blancuzco

¿o era de piedra pómez? ¿quién se acuerda?

 

durante un rato estuvo cavilando

y la escafandra o como se llamase

impedía que viéramos sus ojos

pero juraría que su mirada era

de pereza o abulia

 

algo debió explicar a su regreso

algo diferente al discurso de gloria

que le ordenaron pronunciar eufórico

entre medallas flores vítores y guirnaldas

 

algo debió decir en privado a sus jefes

algo importante inesperado

 

verbigracia / cuando estaba allá arriba

caminando como un zoombie en la luna

mi general mi coronel pensé en ustedes

y se me ocurrió no sé por qué

que debía matarlos con urgencia

uno a uno / dos a dos / etcétera

 

o verbigracia dos / cuando andaba allá / heroico

pisando las feísimas arrugas del satélite

imaginé que así debía ser la muerte

es decir el paisaje de la muerte

 

o verbigracia tres / cuando estaba en selene

paseando por la nada como un imbécil

sentí el asco infinito de la ausencia del hombre

y me dije qué mierda estoy haciendo aquí

 

algo así debe haber confesado a sus jefes

con su estrenada voz de robot disidente

y quizá por eso los dueños del poder

postergaron sine die los viajes a la luna.

 

( Mario Benedetti)

Uno de los tantos recuerdos de Méjico

 

La canción Regina esta inspirada en el libro de Antonio Velazco Piña en el cual ofrece un testimonio de la huella física, mental y espiritual que marcó para Méjico el movimiento estudiantil de 1968, cuyo acontecimiento sigue siendo recordado con especial admiración y profundo respeto

 

Este disco en su estado original esta hecho en una hoja de oro repujado. En la escena aparecen, una cara con una nariz bulbosa emergiendo del pico de un Aguila la cual mira hacia abajo donde se encuentra su víctima. Esta figura rapaz en conjunto con el monstruo del inframundo. En la parte inferior demuestran similitud con elementos de estructuras posteriores en Chichen Itza como el templo de los Guerreros.

El captivo victimado viste un penacho de plumas y tambien tiene bigote y una nariguera en forma de barra (probablemente de Jade) y en su desformación craneal se nota claramente su identidad Maya.

Este disco conmemora el suceso de la caída de los Mayas ante el pueblo invasor Tolteca, ó guerreros Aguila, quienes despues de varias intervenciones bélicas lograron conquistar a los Mayas unos siglos antes de la llegada Española.

 

esta es una réplica de este disco, esta tallada a mano sobre piedra caliza de la zona, por el artista Gilberto Silva, una verdadera obra de arte, tambien tengo por este mismo artista la tapa del sarcófago del Templo de las Inscripciones de Palenque Chiapas.

 

This is a Cast Stone from Gilberto Silva is made of limestone, hand craved, the original is a Gold Disc, is made of a sheet gold that is hammered, and embossed. Here is a warrior with a long bulbous nose emerging from a warrior eagle looks down upon its victim. This raptoral figure and the frontal earth monster below resemble elements on later structure at Chichen-Itza like the temple of the warriors. The victim wears a feathered back dress and even though he has a mustache and a nose bar his reduced forehead and nose structure clearly identify him as Maya. it is significant that the face and eye of the victim were cut through in the destruction of the disc, and the eagle warrior left intact. Perhaps this was used as a charm in a ritual to bring victory to the toltec in their conquest of Chichen-Itza. After being recontructed it was thrown into the sacred well of sacrifice as an offering to the gods to bring victory in the downfall of the maya at Chichen-Itza

The Scene represents the fall of the Maya civilization in the hands of the Toltec culture, originatingat Tula in Central Méjico and coming down through Tabasco. These same people captured the city of Mayapan in Northern Yucatan. They were called Toltec ...meaning "Foreigner"
