Commissioned by Yax Pasaj Chan Yopaat (Ruler 16, reigned 763-822; previously known as Yax Pac, Madrugada, New Sun-at-Horizon) These silhouette sculpture portray feathered vision serpents and are unique to Copan. It is believed that originally they were part of the decoration of Structure 3. Vision serpents are the conduit between the earth and the supernatural realms.
