Axomamma (also Acsumama and Ajomama) is a goddess of potatoes in Inca mythology. She is one of the daughters of Pachamama, the earth mother. Potatoes forms a vital part of the food supply of the Incan people, and most villages would have a particularly odd-shaped potato to worship and ask for a good harvest. Axomama’s name, which means “potato mother,” is also seen as Acsumama to the Incan people.
