Statue of Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl, in the Brooklyn Museum (New York City)
Since the wind blows in all directions, Ehecatl was associated with all the cardinal directions. His temple was built as a cylinder in order to reduce the air resistance, and was sometimes portrayed with two protruding masks through which the wind blew.
