The relics are Olmec, not Mayan, and depict a figure, possibly a ruler or deity, in symbolic attire rather than an astronaut operating an airborne apparatus.

 These artifacts showcase the Olmec’s artistic skill and beliefs, likely related to cosmology and mythology, rather than actual aviation or advanced technology.

 The “feathered serpent ensemble” is more likely a representation of the deity Quetzalcoatl, or a ruler dressed in symbolic regalia, rather than an astronaut suit. These artifacts offer insights into the Olmec’s complex belief systems, where figures were often depicted with animalistic or supernatural attributes to convey power, divinity, or mythological narratives.
