In Mayan mythology, he was the Crocodile Giant. He is the son of Gukup (also Vukup) Cakix, the giant who pretended to be the sun and the moon and brother of the Earthquake God, Caprakan. His mother is the goddess Chimalmat. They were the four primeval giants of the "The Book of the Written Leaves", which is the Mayan Book of the Dawn of Life. Zipacna was responsible for creating the star cluster called the Pleiades in the constellation Taurus.
