Innovative Ways to Look at New World Historical Geography

Abstract

This is the beginning of the old traditions of this place called Quiche. Here we shall set forth the revelation by Tzacol and Bitol [Creator and Maker], Alom [the mother god] and Qaholom [the father god], and Gucumatz [Quiche word for feathered serpent; in Maya, Kukulcan and in Nahuatl, Quetzalcoatl].... Great were the descriptions of how the sky and earth were formed and divided into four parts; and the measuring-cord was brought and stretched in the sky and over the earth on the four corners as was told by the Creator and the Maker, the Mother and the Father of Life, of all created things that exists in the sky, on the earth, in the lakes and in the sea. -Popul Vuh (Sacred Book of Ancient Quiche Maya)
