Apart from these few gods who are considered the most important, the Aztec pantheon also includes:
- Quetzalcoatl – This one is considered the creator of the world, the god of wind and rain, and the god of learning, science, agriculture, crafts, and the arts, etc. He did not only belong to the Aztecs but was a supreme deity in the other religions of ancient Mesoamerican cultures. He is usually depicted as a serpent with feathers.
- Tezcatlipoca – He is the god of sustenance, warriors, and the embodiment of change through conflict. He is often shown with a smoking mirror on his head and a serpent instead of his foot. Usually, he’d also wear a turquoise mask with a black eye band. Interestingly, he was normally designed in various colors depending on the course he was intended to imply. For example, black for the north, blue for the south, red for the east, white for the west direction.
- Xipe Totec – He was the god of agriculture and Spring, usually represented with a large face, double lips, and sunken eyes. Seldom he was shown as covering himself with the skin of one of the victims sacrificed to him.
- Xiuhtecuhtli – He is the god of fire, usually presented as wearing a crown, with a bluebird dangling from his forehead and a fire serpent at his back.
- Xochipilli – He is the god of flowers, love, dancing, creativity, and Summer. He is often portrayed in the group of butterflies, flowers, mushrooms, and animals; and sometimes supplemented by a symbol of four dots that symbolized the sun.
- Mictlantecuhtli – He is the god of the dead, and linked with owls, spiders, bats, and the southern cardinal direction.
- Coatlicue – This is the earth-mother goddess and the protector of childbirth, often presented as wearing a skirt of serpents, with large claws that she employed to swallow human corpses.
