MEXICO CITY, MEXICO—Mexico News Daily reports that the head of a sculpture of a Maya warrior has been uncovered in the eastern Yucatán Peninsula, at the site of the ancient Maya city of Chichén Itzá. The 13-inch-tall artifact was found in a temple in the Casa Colorada complex during an excavation associated with the Maya Train project. The warrior is shown wearing a helmet shaped like a feathered serpent with open jaws. Diego Prieto Hernández, general director of Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH), said that the helmet may allude to the serpent deity Kukulcán.
