When NelumboSkid was recently in El Tajin, near Papantla Mexico (see also Jenna and Dave’s travelblog), at a Totonac archeological site, they snapped a shot of this bas relief of (presumably) a priest doing a genital play piercing or bloodletting ceremony. So maybe if you’re into CBT you’re a reincarnated Totonac priest.

i loved the way you have ‘hidden’ the MOD-BLOG text in this one.
plus, looks pretty cool, involved in the ritual part of things.

mayans had several rites of this kind. this is,what is called from an arquelogical and anthropological view, an autosacrifice. i’ve also seen on several books, not only this drawing, but also ones where wifes of some priests piecrced their tongues and passed a rope through it, to prise a deity i don’t remember the name. alse there is one i think dedicated to the god Huitzilopochtli that a priest is dripping blood from one of his ears, like this drawing. passing a spear through his lobe, i assume this also meant how some of their piercings where done. every day that passes, i find something more and more interesting of Mayan and Aztecs…how many things would have been different if the spanish conquerors had culturized their own culture with native american traditions…

Not just a drawing, but a full article!
Also, if you visit Shawn Porter‘s page on IAM, the latest Scar Wars shirt (by ModBlog regular Wayde Dunn) is based on a similar glyph.

As wildskin said the maya made many genital related blood offerings. I saw a speech by William Saturno who found the oldest maya muralknown(100 BC) which shows their creation story and rights of kingship. They both show a man using genital bloodletting for sacrifice to the gods.
Here’s a link to an article and a picture of a piece of it.

You know what I really fucking love about this site..
The fact that you Shannon take such a role in it. Not only by posting 90% of the pictures yourself but by commenting and accually staying involved so much in this site, not just pawning it off to some hired help to call the shots. And again, I think that’s why, even know with thousands of members across the globe, BME still feels like a family to me.
