History: 

Camazotz, an ancient deity in Mayan culture, was the OG Batman. He is described in lore as having a humanoid figure with a knife-like nose. Camazotz was a god of death—fitting considering his name means "death bat," when translated from the Kʼicheʼ (also spelled Quiché), the language of Mayans native to Guatemala's central highlands.

Camazotz lived in a cave and had bat-like characteristics causing speculation that the god of death was related to Desmodus draculae, an extinct species of leaf-nosed vampire bat that was native to Central and South America during the Pleistocene epoch.
