Beschreibung
The
Popol Vuh is a foundational text of
Maya culture and literature, often referred to as the "Book of the Council" or "Book of the Community." It is one of the most important historical sources for understanding the beliefs, mythology, and history of the
Kʼicheʼ Maya people, who inhabited the highlands of present-day
Guatemala.
The Popol Vuh does not have a single, identifiable author in the conventional sense. Instead, it is a product of the collective oral traditions of the Kʼicheʼ Maya.
