RESUMEN
En este trabajo se describe y analiza la escena representada en la pared norte del cuarto 2 del edificio de las pinturas de Bonampak. En este pasaje mural se representa la tortura y muerte de los vencidos en batalla por Chaan Muan II el 2 de agosto de 792. El derramamiento de sangre representado con enorme maestría técnica se presenta en el mural como un acto heroico y ritual que garantiza el equilibrio cósmico; se expresa una sutil ideología política que justifica la violencia como medio para conservar el orden social.
