What is the Popol Vuh and Why Is It ‘the Mayan Bible?’
The Popol Vuh -- a centuries-old text sometimes known as the “Mayan Bible” -- is getting a fresh treatment. Ilan Stavans, a professor at Amherst College, recently wrote “Popol Vuh: A Retelling.” “This is a book about how the universe was created,” Stavans told Inside Edition Digital. “It's a lesson of survival, it's the story of how people managed to face all sorts of the challenges, and still remain together, and fight for their endurance in spite of everything.” #InsideEdition

Oh I learned about this in History class the Spanish burned hundreds of Mayan books because they couldn't understand it so the priest called it evil writing.

Mmmm except that there were a few other tries to create humans as well, all of which failed, and it actually WAS maize (corn) that ended up being used to create the human species. I don’t know where he’s getting the story from.
I have read this book (the original) 3 times and I love it.

Actually the Mayans were right, the world "as we knew it," ended on 2012, but we haven't fully realized yet so the next generations will have a fuller understanding of these transformative and quantum leap events and glivally ecognize it as a true event, maybe the start of "POST HISTORY", the third and final mortal living stage of mankind.
How can this man be an expert when he gets the fundamental details and sequence of events colossally wrong?
