The Myth of Quetzalcoatl is a translation of Alfredo Lpez Austins 1973 book Hombre-Dios: Religin y politica en el mundo nhuatl. Despite its pervasive and lasting influence on the study of Mesoamerican history, religion in general, and the Quetzalcoatl myth in particular, this work has not been available in English until now.
The importance of Hombre-Dios and its status as a classic arise from its interdisciplinary approach, creative use of a wide range of source material, and unsurpassed treatment of its subjectthe nature and content of religious beliefs and rituals among the native populations of Mesoamerica and the manner in which they fused with and helped sanctify political authority and rulership in both the pre- and post-conquest periods. Working from a wide variety of previously neglected documentary sources, incorporating myth, archaeology, and the ethnography of contemporary Native Americans including non-Nahua peoples, Lpez Austin traces the figure of Quetzalcoatl as a Man-God from pre-conquest times, while Russ Davidsons translators note, Davd Carrasco's foreword, and Lpez Austins introduction place the work within the context of modern scholarship.
