Here is a similar example found on Egyptian papyrus: ![]() The Hero Twins of Mayan lore were avid bird hunters. In one of their stories, one of the characters is a bird-god entity called "Seven Macaw." (A macaw is a variety of parrot). They have two encounters with Seven Macaw.

Note, that the poison bottle is an effigy of a man's head:
Here are the two bird images again, side by side, and in context with the crown face:

If we combine the profile picture of the crown face, with the simplest portrayal of the birds, we get this image; an avid bird hunter:
Are you wondering where you have seen this before? This image should be a very familiar scene for anyone who has studied the Wil Faust images of "parrotopia." Below is my version:

Here is the video of this feature I put on youtube:
