Semana Santa is the time where god sky (Jesucristo nahual) has been sacrificed and his twin brother god earth, the Rilaj Mam, or Maximon, takes over while Jesus awaits ressurection. The effigy of the "dirty eating" saint Maximon is visited by pilgrims during the Holy Week celebrations in Santiago Atitlan, Guatemala. His exact origin is unknown, but he is thought to be a blend of ancient Maya gods, Pedro de Alvarado and the biblical Judas.
