NOHOCH ICH
Maya Deity
Also known as Big Eye, Noh Ek, Nohoch Ek
Space God of Military Prognostications
He is the planet Venus, known to the Maya as the Big Eye in space. They kept careful track of his position – just as he presumably kept track of theirs.
Nohoch Ich was used more for divining than as a divinity — particularly when working out the best times to wage war. Venus was a very important symbol to the Maya and many of their military operations were timed to coincide with auspicious planetary movements. So basically the Maya invented Star Wars – not to mention the Death Star.
As opposed to some cultures, the Maya knew Venus was both the Morning and Evening Star. That must have helped a lot with their calculations.
