About this item

In the Maya symbol of the tortoise had many meanings and was an important element of their culture and beliefs. Turtle was a symbol of longevity, stability, wisdom and connection with nature. Its image is often found on various Maya artifacts, including pottery, drawings and reliefs.

One interpretation of the symbolism of the turtle in the Maya was the connection with the idea of cosmic ordinariness and order, as the turtle was perceived as a creature able to move between the different elements of the world - water, earth and sky. This was associated with the idea of a world in which everything is interconnected and has its place in a harmonious system.

In addition, the turtle was associated with mythological stories, which could have a variety of meanings depending on the specific context. For example, in some myths, the turtle played the role of the world's fulcrum on which the Earth was held, and this also emphasized its significance as a symbol of stability and maintenance.

The meaning of the turtle symbol among the Maya may have varied depending on the period, region, and specific history.
