Were-jaguar

The jaguar man was in the Mesoamerican Olmec culture on the one hand an artistic motif and a supernatural being, perhaps a deity.

The figure of the jaguar people is characterized by almond-shaped eyes, an open mouth with turned-down corners of the mouth as well as a split head. The motif is widespread in the archaeological finds of the Olmec culture. The supernatural Jaguar Man was once regarded as the main god of the Olmec, now it is believed that he was one among many gods.
