Description
Based on a drawing I found somewhere, this was for a school project. I'm still very pleased with this picture.According to the source used, in Mexico/South America, a winged snake is representative of wisdom and learning. I find this interesting, since in the Bible the snake is victimised and accused of giving humans the fruit from the tree of knowledge, then cursed to live a life in the dust.

actually snakes are not only a representation of wishdom, but they were whorshiped as gods, mostly as the gods of wind and fertility, the Mayas never called him Quetzalcoatl, they called him "Cuculcan" but it was basically the same serpent that the Aztecs adored XD I kno all these becouse I live in the country where that cultures are (Mexico) if you'll like more information fel free to tell me
