I had no idea this one anon existed.
Cool find.
If you're still here, anon, anything you can tell me about these dudes?

>>sacrifice thousands for Tonatiuh during eclipses so the skeletal star devils don't descend and eat everyone

>They were pretty freaky, they called them the Tzitzimime. Massive spooky astral skeletons with glazed-over eyes, stars for joints, and eagle talons for hands and feet. They wore human hands and organs as jewelry. Women prayed to them for help during childbirth, and the souls of women who died in childbirth could become them. They also occasionally swooped down at night to tear apart wayward children and pregnant women, and they could be heard in advance by the rattling sound of their shell skirts. Usually they just waited menacingly in the night sky for their chance to invade earth, either during eclipses or once every 52 years when the world threatened to come apart. To prevent this from happening and connect the ages together the Aztecs performed the New Fire ceremony. The night before the 52 years were up everyone in the valley of Mexico put out their fires so everything was bathed in darkness. Everyone was anxious that the sun wouldn't reappear and they'd all be eaten by the figures in the stars above, but they looked to the top Mount Huizachtlan for hope. There the priests of Huehueteotl cut out a man's heart and placed some sticks in the cavity. They rubbed the sticks together vigorously until they produced a flame, which they used to create a bonfire that would be used to relight the whole valley and renew the world and keep the Tzitzimime at bay for at least another 52 years.

I've always liked the concept of this stuff a lot when I first read about them all those years ago.
