Kukulkan and some of his animal collection
Kukulkan's starship
Kukulkan was an ancient and very long-living being, the last of his species. Despite his appearance, he is benevolent.
He has visited Earth in the distant past, and was instrumental in the technological and architectural advances of the Egyptian, Mayan and Aztec civilizations. He also taught them new art and agriculture techniques. He hoped that they would combine this knowledge to complete Kukulkan's city and live in peace. They did not. Kukulkan's visit to Earth is manifested in history by legends of a winged serpent creature that came from the sky bringing knowledge. These records are available in the Library computer.
He has also been identified with the lore of Quetzalcoatl and the legend of the Chinese dragon. (TAS: "How Sharper Than a Serpent's Tooth")
- Kukulkan was voiced by James Doohan. In the German version of the episode, Kukulkan was spelt Kulkulkan. Kirk/Shatner almost constantly pronounced the name "Kuklukan."
