The opossum “is an animal that has great mythological importance in Mesoamerican Culture, it is the Opossum or tlacuatzin.
He appears closely connected with the deities of fertility and especially with the corn gods, even though he is also very frequently found united with the goddess of the earth as seen for example in the Zouche-Nuttall codex, page. 3. […]
Now, such great importance given to an animal always means, in Mesoamerica, that it is a disguise of a god, and we see it demonstrated in this case, since in several of the urns in which the opossum appears, It is conceived as a costume for a human character, […]
The urn from the Castellanos collection, without provenance, represents the opossum standing, and you can see the spherical eyes and the plate decorated with dots bordering the lips; but it lacks braiding on the nose. His pectoral in this case consists of a jade disc.”
Time: 300 AD – 700 AD Classical period.

still not showing up in System Settings. Editing the locale rc file in .config did change the language. It's just not showing up in the settings menu. Any suggestions?
