[PAR] [TLE] Quetzalcoatl [SEP] Quetzalcoatl ( ; ] ) (,    ) forms part of Mesoamerican literature and is a deity whose name comes from the Nahuatl language and means "feathered serpent".  The worship of a feathered serpent is first documented in Teotihuacan in the first century BC or first century AD.  That period lies within the Late Preclassic to Early Classic period (400 BC – 600 AD) of Mesoamerican chronology, and veneration of the figure appears to have spread throughout Mesoamerica by the Late Classic period (600–900 AD). [PAR] [TLE] Q'uq'umatz [SEP] Q'uq'umatz (] ) (alternatively Qucumatz, Gukumatz, Gucumatz, Gugumatz, Kucumatz etc.) was a deity of the Postclassic K'iche' Maya.  Q'uq'umatz was the Feathered Serpent divinity of the "Popol Vuh" who created humanity together with the god Tepeu.  Q'uq'umatz is considered to be the rough equivalent of the Aztec god Quetzalcoatl, and also of Kukulkan of the Yucatec Maya tradition.  It is likely that the feathered serpent deity was borrowed from one of these two peoples and blended with other deities to provide the god Q'uq'umatz that the K'iche' worshipped.  Q'uq'umatz may have had his origin in the Valley of Mexico; some scholars have equated the deity with the Aztec deity Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl, who was also a creator god.  Q'uq'umatz may originally have been the same god as Tohil, the K'iche' sun god who also had attributes of the feathered serpent, but they later diverged and each deity came to have a separate priesthood.
