Mayans used masks for a few reasons. Mayan warriors wore masks to intimidate their enemies, like those that have faces that look like snakes and similar kinds of animals. Those who believed in the powers of this mask because of its “spirit”, believed that it protected the wearer through spiritual power.
Mayans also wore masks for wedding ceremonies and for other festivities - just like present-day masquerade ballroom events.
