THE JAGUAR IN AZTEC CULTURE
The Aztecs considered jaguars the lords of the jungle and all its animals. Fearing nothing but man, the jaguar is an apex predator that embodies many of the traits the Jaguar Warriors aspired to. The Aztecs so revered this large cat that it is a central image throughout their art, lore, and religion.

JAGUAR WARRIORS: AZTEC KNIGHTS
Ocelotl [oh-say-lo] : “Jaguar Warrior” in the Aztec language of Nahuatl

The jaguar heart beats within every warrior. No one knew this better than the ocelotl—the elite Aztec military unit of the Jaguar Warriors. Accomplished leaders, warriors, and protectors, the ocelotl ensured that the Aztec empire flourished.

THE MODERN OCELOTL
There are still Jaguar Warriors who walk among us today. Those that are born with the heart of a jaguar and have learned to master the power of the animal within— and will never cease fighting for family, community, and honor.

OCELOTL BAND SYMBOLISM
The Jaguar – An Aztec symbol of strength, war, and a representation of the jaguar god Tezcatlipoca—second only to the snake god Quetzalcoatl in religious importance.

Macuahuitl – This large double-edged wooden sword is studded with razor-sharp obsidian glass blades. Both sides of the band's shank feature this trusted weapon of the Jaguar Warrior.

Double-Headed Snake – Represents the feathered serpent god Quetzalcoatl, Aztec god of the wind and wisdom.

Turquoise – Prized above even gold, the Aztecs believed this stone had healing properties that would bring strength, prosperity, and success in battle.

Under Gallery – A skull Jaguar Warrior flanked by two warrior brothers, members of the other elite Aztec military unit—the Eagle Warriors.
