The deity was also known by his calendrical name, [[Ometochtli]] ("two-rabbit").[1] He is a consort of [[Mayahuel]]|italic=no, who is a mask-avatar of [[Xōchiquetzal]]|italic=no.
According to Aztec myth, Tepoztēcatl|italic=no was one of the [[Centzon Tōtōchtin]],[2] the four hundred children of [[Mayahuel]]|itlaic=no, the goddess of the maguey plant, and [[Patecatl]]|italic=no, the god that discovered the fermentation process.[1] As a deity of pulque, Tepoztēcatl|italic=no was associated with fertility cults and [[Tlāloc]]|italic=no.[1] Tepoztēcatl|italic=no was also associated with the wind, hence deriving an alternative name of Ehecacone|italic=no, son of the wind.[1]
Tepoztēcatl|italic=no appears in the Mendoza Codex carrying a copper axe.[1]
