Interesting how similar he looks to anubis

Not just looks. But role too. Anubis often guided and protected the dead on their journey to the afterlife. Jackals were said to be his and would protect graveyards and such. Anubis helped bring back together Osiris body and gave Osiris renewed "life" by performing the funerary ritual. As well as giving up his role as judge of the dead to Osiris. He's also connected with Hermes. But so is Thoth; who is also connected to Quetzalcoatl, who is said here to be the "twin brother" of Xolotl. Apparently Anubis could shapeshift too, and upon seeing Osiris' dead body was so shocked he turned into a lizard (while Xolotl turns into a axolotl among other things). I swear, all mythos (ancient and modern) are connected. Either retelling of the same stories/people, or it's the same people throughout time who go under different names / forms. Sometimes taking the same forms; such as Amun-Ra, Zeus-Ammun, and Satan being goat-headed/goat-horned, and all being connected or said to be the same being (Enlil).

A lot of mythologies around the world have some kind of Hellhound or Black Dog related to death Cerberus, Anubis, Garm, Xolotl, etc...

​@@EndoScorpionThese were deceptive demons that presented themselves as Gods to the ancient civilizations of man. Of course, the forms that these demons would appear to humans would look alike. They are the minions of Satan.

Was thinking same thing

YAS! As a Mexican this is so cool that you’re doing more Aztec mythology!

One derivation of the name 'axolotl' references the Aztec god Xolotl, the god of games who could turn himself into an axolotl to escape his enemies. An axolotl's skeleton is comprised mostly of cartilage. They exhibit neoteny, meaning they retain juvenile characteristics into adulthood.

Axolotls are small salamanders.

Kid: Where do babies come from? Xolotl: Blood sacrifice and the bone of the ancient dead...

one big lake in Nicaragua is called Xolotlan, called like this by the Nahuas who reached this place hundreds of years ago.

More Aztec Mythology please!

Awesome learned something new today

I love learning mythology.

I really liked this video, for a future video how about one about the Ho Li Tinh of Vietnamese mythology or how about the Gumiho of korean mythology

0:00 😮Wow so this is Xolotl The God of the Dead. 0:15 Xolotl had a brother Quetzalcoatl Serpent God. 0:49 Xolotl with 2 dogs on journey on the Underworld. 1:28 He got collect bones of ancient human beings and escape from world of the dead. 2:09🤔 All bones were recovered and service had to be brought back to life. I wonder Xolotl was pure on bones from jar blood sacrifice? 2:48 Cool see between day and night with animals. 3:22 Xolotl was captured and sacrificed. 👏Wow now that was amazing story of Xolotl The God of the Dead in Aztec Mythology history.

Thanks for the video

So, he’s the Aztec Anubis, even having a dog’s head.

Dogs have been associated with the dead for thousands of years. Specifically being psychopomps who guide the dead. Even Hades has his three headed dog Cerberus

Fun fact: Xolotl cried so hard from the thought of sacrifice that his eyes bled out of their sockets and that's why his eyes are red in his depictions

Hold on:i thought that tezcatlipoca was the ONLY sibling that Quetzalcoatl has ever Had!

Xipe Totec and Huitzilopochtli are also his brothers to and xoltol is more like a dark mirror of Quetzalcoatl

What is the background that also in Egypt a dogheaded god helped the Sun in night?

​@@corporateturtle6005no, Set is not asociated with the dead. You are confusing Set with Anubis, Anubis is the one with a dog head and is a son of Osiris (sometimes he is the son of Set himself).

@@despinasgarden.4100 He asked who the dog headed God was that helped the sun at night which was Set who protects the sunbarge as it decends into the underworld at night and fights off Apophis. No one said anything about the jackle headed God of the dead, Anubis. So not sure why you're even in this conversation.

@@despinasgarden.4100 True, it's not known what animal he has the head of. People think it's possibly an aardvark, African wild dog, donkey, hyena, jackal(similar to Anubis), pig, antelope, fennec fox, and some even think it might be a stylized depiction of a giraffe, lol.

Uno de mis dioses favoritos de la mitología azteca

Fun fact Xolotl was mostly a tiny black dog with no hair and no eyes for he did not need them in the darkness like his Brother Quetzalcoatl a giant snake who's eyes was always open to see the light

Mmm very interesting, I have never heard a story about The Aztec god of Death I have never heard this story But I really like your story my dear brother father I absolutely love your story yup .

❤🤍💙 all your videos mate👍

The gods just travel and take new names and appearances it seems

Some assassins creed ending right there

Hail Xolotl!

지금 와서 생각해 보면 두무지(Dumuzi)님, 탐무즈(Tammuz)님, 자그레우스(Zagreus)님과 유사한 신이네요.

He is like set and anubis in one.kinda cool

Heard there’s some salamander named after this that also became popular game or something 😮

Important detail missed is he turned into a two stemmed corn, 2 of those plants and axolotl (animal capable of life on land and water) each new form he took was duplicate

So who is doing the capturing of a god?

OK

The cutest salamander

💭 (A)Xolotl

Another crazy gods of awosme

it remind me of the ancient egyptian god seth[ but its head more akin to egyptian doglike-headed anubis also god of the death with also human-body with a animal-head ]somewhat similar with its duty to protect the old egyptian sun-god ra in its dangerous nightly dark-underworld-journey to rise again!but its a few similarities the rest of its mythology is pure aztecs uniquely traits.

Why do so many cultures have dog/dogman beings associated with death, afterlife or under world?

Same reason as the terms "dog days", "Dogged", "Doggard", and so on. In olden times, your dog may live as long as you do, and you see him age and transform faster than you do.

That's a common thread amongst all the origin stories found throughout the world by different people and cultures such as the Sumerian tablets, the Indian texts, the far east Asian stories, Egyptian, etc where the gods or the Anunnaki created the ones called humans today with unrighteous and unjust ways of creating beings and this earth we are currently in which is not the original earth that was first created by the True Creator the One called the God of gods in holy scriptures of the Bible. Which means all humans and this fake earth are bound to be destroyed forever when the Truth is revealed because whatever is founded in lies and deceit shall surely be destroyed by the Truth when the Truth is finally revealed and the lie exposed by the light of the Truth. Only the ones whom were not created as humans and who remain loyal to the Truth unto death will be protected and saved by the Truth from all the attacks of lies that the ones founded in lies were lifting up over the ones standing in the Truth. Who are those? Will you be one of them the chosen ones?

Please do Caribbean islands mythology and indigenous tribes.

So even a "god" can't outrun his own destiny........

Sounds like jesus and the lizard races story. to me 😅

Xolotl, is a scary psychopomp. I think he could be anubis. 🤷‍♂️

Anubis moved to South America when the Egyptian Empire collapsed. The story of the Sun sounds the same too.

Basically… Aztec Anubis

He doesn't look Aztec.

meanwhile the furries💀

X = ch sound.
