A Maya ceramic effigy incense burner, 600-900 CE from Comitán, Chiapas, used in rituals to honor ancestors. The upper part is a deity. The lower part is the head of an underworld animal, possibly a bat or jaguar. This duality symbolizes the Mayan belief in the interconnection between life and death.

Kenneth Anger with American sexologist Alfred Kinsey. In 1955, they travelled to Cefalù in Sicily to visit the derelict Abbey of Thelema, where writer Aleister Crowley had briefly established a commune in the 1920s, before being expelled by Mussolini.
