Popol Vuh: Stories for Children

$21.82
 
Popol Vuh is the ancient text of the Quiche Maya of Mexico and Guatemala well before the Spanish and Europeans landed on the shores of these lands. The story of creation had been passed down over unknown generations, being scribed possibly in 1554. Popol Vuh, also known as the The Book of the People tells about the creation of the Earth, people and animals that inhabit it. Though banned by the Spanish Conquest, copies were rediscovered in the nineteenth century.
Popol Vuh follows the hero twins Hunahpu and Xbalanque in their struggle with the Lords of Death in the underworld. Through the Twin Hero's actions, people, animals and plants were allowed to inhabit the Earth.
Popol Vuh, Stories for Children brings the complex and beautiful story to the young who seek answers to the beliefs before European history was taught in the Americas.
