Kukulkan: Feathered Serpent (deity) THE QUESTION OF THE END OF MAYA. Kukulkan was one of the three gods who created the Earth. It has the appearance of a feathered serpent and taught to the Maya how to lead a civilization, make agriculture and medicine. After a short time on Earth, back into the ocean he is prophesying a second descent to Earth. Prophecy wants that Kukulkan would come back in human form, white and on horseback.

That's why the arrival of European settlers was traded by the Maya as the second coming of the deity. Cortez, exchanged for the reincarnation of Kukulkan, was left subjugate, exploit and exterminate them.
