to have or wear (literally, to give) black face paint; typically found on priests
Tlaloc, Quetzalcoatl, and Ixtlilton are also found wearing black paint on their skin. Again, search the Digital Florentine Codex for the term ixtlilmaca and get several interesting results. (SW)
Ixtlilton, “Little Black Face,” is the name of a deity or divine force, also known as Tlaltecuin or Tlaltetecuini, "Earth-Stamper,” who “belonged with the Macuiltonaleque, the young solar deities who presided over flowers, feasting, singing, dancing, gaming, and painting and who bore the names of the five tonalpohualli (260-day religious divinatory calendar) days assigned to the south, with numerical coefficients of five (the number signifying ‘excess’). Their most prominent member was Macuilxochitl, ‘Five Flower.’" [See: Fray Bernardino de Sahagún, Primeros Memoriales, ed. Thelma D. Sullivan, et al. (Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1997), 101.]
