Another name for our Hero
As it looks like Ahau-kin is used as a character in a video game, and as it turns out, the name I just found is better…perhaps we should go with this:
The Balam (meaning ‘jaguar) are also Mayan guardian deities. They are poorly defined spirits who protect people in day to day life. Four balam stand at the cardinal points around a village to guard against dangerous animals. They also protect the four sides of a smallholding against thieves.
The local press and villagers call him El Balam
