Mexica priests #2
Did you know that the Mexica priests dyed their temples red using the blood of the sacrifices made for the gods?
The priestly garments worn during the celebrations of the festivities dedicated to gods were varied and complex, but during the days when their tutelary deities were not honored by all the common people, the priests dressed in a more humble way, with a xicolli or nightgown, painting their body with black and smearing their hair with blood, then proceeded to clean themselves every night, except if they were performing some penance, in which fasting and sacrifices ordered them to maintain that aspect for days or weeks.
