Religion: Tonatiuh (Means – sun worshipers), Tonantzin (Means – Honored Mother, Earth) also a small cult has formed around a god called Ipalnemoani (Means – Unknown God),
History & Folklore:
In its fairly recent past, the Malinalli were a group of different tribes of the Quatzels . They used to be very much like the Hania in that they worshiped animal spirits, but in the last four or five generations they have become a more agrarian culture. The tribes were united under a single religious leader. Now the cities are known after the particular tribe that originally inhabited that area. Families that come from each of the tribes now identify themselves as the Malinalli instead of their individual animal totems. There are still some who follow the old ways but they live outside of the mainstream culture itself or keep it to themselves. . When the First Prophet united the tribes he had them build great temples to the Sun and Mother. Two main temples were built. The largest was the Sun Temple & was built in the City of Axayaca and the other temple to The Mother was built in the middle of the jungle and around it formed the city of Coatl. Some say the followers of Ipalnemoani have taken it over. A new tribe was associated around these new cities. They called themselves Malinalli {Meaning – Plant}
are lead by a religious leader who is a proclaimed prophet. He calls himself the offspring of the Sun and the Earth. Only the prophet can identify his siblings, the children of the Sun and Earth, therefore the prophet chooses his successor who must be one of these children, this can be a family member or close associate. There has never been a woman called as a prophet, but it is assumed that this would be highly unlikely. There are High priests associated with the religion but they have no hold on the leadership.
