Piltzintecuhtli
In Aztec mythology, Piltzintecuhtli [piɬt͡sinˈtekʷt͡ɬi] was a god of the rising sun, healing,[1] and visions, associated with Tōnatiuh. The name means "the Young Prince". It may have been another name for Tōnatiuh, but he is also mentioned as a possibly unique individual, the husband of Xōchiquetzal. He was the lord of the third hour of the night.[2] Piltzintecuhtli was said to be the son of Oxomoco and Cipactonal (the first man and woman that were created) and was seen as a protector of children.[3] He was identified as the Youthful Sun.[3]
Known also as "7 Flower," he was also a god of hallucinatory plants, including mushrooms.[4]
He was considered the father of Centeōtl, a deity who was sacrificed in order to bring forth plants.[2]
