They belong to the American picture that also includes Wichi-Lobos (Huitzilopochtli as distorted by Paul Claudel) and the Hindu Solar Pitri, active in what serves as America.

Their most probable referent is the Olmec colossal heads: seventeen basalt monuments carved in Mesoamerica between the 13th and 4th centuries BC, found mainly at La Venta, San Lorenzo and Tres Zapotes, weighing 6 to 50 tons and up to 3.4 m tall, with individualized human faces and a debated original function.
