This is an actual real statute on Mexico Puerto Vallarta amazing and real.

It’s a chair, no less, so that one can relax by the seaside and comfortably contemplate the dread mysteries of the fathomless deeps and the monstrous and vast intelligences that dwell therein.

When you see the whole thing it’s less threatening.

Fun fact: Tenochtitlan fell in 1521. From 1603 onwards, large numbers of honest-to-god fricking Japanese Samurai came to Mexico from Japan to work as guardsmen and mercenaries. 

Ergo, it would be 100% historically accurate to write a story starring a quartet consisting of the child or grandchild of Aztec Noblemen, an escaped African slave, a Spanish Jew fleeing the Inquisition (which was relaxed in Mexico in 1606, for a time) and a Katana-wielding Samurai in Colonial Mexico.

Also a whole bunch of Chinese Characters BECAUSE MEXICO CITY HAD A CHINATOWN WITHIN TEN YEARS OF THE FALL OF THE AZTEC EMPIRE.

history: always weirder than you expect
