The Church (of Itzimná) - a photo on Flickriver

The Church are an Australian alternative rock band formed in Sydney in 1980. Initially associated with new wave, neo-psychedelia, and indie rock, their music later came to feature slower tempos and surreal soundscapes reminiscent of dream pop and post-rock. "this unique Sydney-originated entity has purveyed a distinctive, ethereal, psychedelic-tinged sound which has alternatively found favour and disfavour in Australia." The Los Angeles Times has described the band's music as "dense, shimmering, exquisite guitar pop" (from Wikipedia).

Sometime in history, there was here, in what we know as Mérida, Yucatán, México, a worship place for the Mayan god Itzamná, however, Spanish conquerors, built over it a little chapel in 1572 and many years later a temple dedicated to Saint Michel Archangel. At this time, it remains the baptismal font in the restored Church of Itzimná.

En algún momento de la historia existió, en lo que hoy se conoce como barrio de Itzimná, un adoratorio dedicado al Dios maya Itzamná, sin embargo los conquistadores decidieron construir en 1572 una pequeña capilla y años más tarde el templo donde por muchos años se veneró al Cristo de las Esquipulas y dedicado también a San Miguel Arcángel. De la primera capilla se conserva aún la pila bautismal en lo que ahora es la ya renovada Parroquia de la Señora del Perpetuo Socorro en veneración a dicha Virgen.
