The 2013 Compass Rose Geocoin® is based on the Mesoamerican map of the world discovered in the Codex Fejéváry-Mayer. Created prior to 1519 AD, the year when Spanish Conquistadors started arriving in Central America, this map includes a central section that relates to where home is. Extending out from the center are the cardinal directions with representations of life within them. Included in these representations are temples, altars, dots to mark the 260 day calendar (20 named days counted thirteen times), and gods: •Xipe-Totec - The Flayed One presiding over the East, which is the most sacred direction (god of gold, vegetation, and seasons)
•Huitzilopochtli - The Hummingbird presiding over the South (god of war and sacrifice)
•Quetzalcoatl - Flying Serpent presiding over the West (god of wind, light, and justice)
•Tezcatlipoca - Smoking Mirror presiding over the North (god of earth, deceit, and night)
•Ehecatl - One of the creator gods (god of all cardinal directions and wind)
