* Just download and start reading! *
The Popol Vuh is a collection of mythical, legendary and historical narratives of the K’iche ’people, the Guatemalan Mayan people with the largest population. The book, of great historical and spiritual value, has been called the Sacred Book of the Maya.
It is preserved in a bilingual manuscript written by Fray Francisco Ximénez, who identifies himself as the transcriber (of the Mayan Quiché version) and translator of an old "book." Based on this, the existence of a work written around the year 1550 has been postulated by an indigenous man who, after learning to write with Latin characters, captured and wrote the oral recitation of an elder.
However, this hypothetical author «never reveals the source of his written work and instead invites the reader to believe what he wants from the first straight folio», 1 where he states that the original book "is no longer seen" and uses the expression "painted" to describe it. If such a document existed, it would have remained hidden until the period 1701-1703, when Ximenez became a doctrinal priest of Santo Tomás Chichicastenango (Chuilá).
The Popol Vuh recounts the non-existence of the world until the creator and trainer decided to generate life. The intention was that his own creations could speak and thank him for life. First Earth was created, then animals and finally men. These were initially made of mud, but as the attempt failed, the great creator and trainer decided to extract them from the wood. Once constituted as many families, the creator and trainer, fearful that their creatures might be tempted to supplant them in wisdom, diminished the sight and intelligence of the eight.
