Ecatepec (TR26r)

This compound glyph for the place name Ecatepec includes a sign for Ehecatl the divine force (or deity) of the wind sitting on top of a green mountain (-tepec) with curly rocky outcroppings on the slopes and a white horizontal band at the base. The representation of Ehecatl looks something like a bird's head in profile, facing toward the viewer's right. It has a long narrow beak filled with sharp teeth, with the beak slightly open and an additional, hefty protrusion above this thin beak. One (open) eye is visible. Around the perimeter of the head are what may be five small, round down feathers. In the middle of the green mountain or hill is another bird head, perhaps a rooster or chicken (European), or a turkey (Indigenous), also in profile, also facing toward the viewer's right.
