Like some other hachas and many palmas, this sculpture has two registers of information. Palmas frequently have a ritual scene or contextual depiction, often on the back, and a celebrated symbol or protagonist, usually on the front. In this case the upper figure is suggestive of the context, a ball game player with a zoomorphic helmet alluding to a specific mythological event. The base of the hacha has the principal image, the severed head of a sacrificed participant, a trophy rendered in the guise of a major deity from legend.

Hugo lets his head fall back to the ground and blows out a breath through his lips. “Oh, fuck me.”
“Only if you ask nicely,” Varian leers. The blond turns six different shades of red in rapid succession. Varian leans down, but Eugene will have none of that, thank you, and yoinks the kid back by his collar.
I forgot I haven't introduced you to the clowns! This is Hacha and Machete.
Hacha and Machete are performers that work at a bar called El Segundo Cielo. Hacha is human and Machete, or Mac, is a castigo like Janina and Gila and just looks like a clown. Third pic is his chest ornamentation that formed after he got top surgery. Hacha is just in costume, but usually keeps it on when she's not performing in order to help Mac fit in better. Two clowns out of nowhere makes the slightest bit more sense than just one lone clown.
The designs have been simplified a bit more since the intro sheet I made, but I made it and I'm gonna use it!
