Pascual Abaj (alternatively written Pascual Ab'aj),[1] also known as Turcaj,[2]Turk'aj,[3]Turuk'aj and Turukaj,[4] is a pre-Columbian Maya idol at Chichicastenango that survived the Spanish conquest of Guatemala and which is still venerated by the local community. It is the best-known example of such an image.[5] The image was badly damaged in the 1950s by members of Catholic Action.[6]
