Viracocha, Incan God - Lake Titicaca

Besides being interested in mythology and other beliefs in general, I recently came across gold pendant that seemed to tell a story... After doing a little research, I found that the story and emblems on the piece represented an Inca Deity, most commonly known as "Viracocha". They believed that Viracocha created the earth, sun, stars, and moon. He even embarked on a journey over the land of Peru to observe the people and how they live. He left them by walking on water over the ocean never to be seen again. He is tied frequently to Lake Titicaca. Although our rendition of him isn't as detailed as most of the ancient artwork created by the Inca, we have tried our best to create a representation of Viracocha that could also be printed in gold on a t-shirt. We hope that it is satisfactory!
