The Probert Encyclopaedia of Aztec & Mayan Mythology

EHECATL

In Aztec mythology, Ehecatl was the god of wind. He fell in love with a beautiful mortal maiden called Mayahuel who he caught up in his embrace, laid her on the ground and made love to her. Unfortunately, making love to a god was too much for Mayahuel who subsequently died as a result.
Ehecatl buried her and a tree grew from her grave with branches like outstretched arms. Everafter
Ehecatl searched the earth for another mortal as beautiful as Mayahuel and mortals heard him sighing as the wind in the trees.
