 The identification of Head-Apu I with the Classic Mayan Maize Deity has become popular, but requires further corroboration.The hieroglyphic name of the Tonsured Maize God (although including the prefix 'One') is not recognizable as that of Head-Apu I.Moreover, the tree with the suspended trophy head is a personified cacao tree, rather than a calabash tree, as in "Popol Vuh".
