ORIGINAL MAYAN ART... IN COLOUR!


1. Akan, on the mountain, smokes a cigar made of native tobacco -- he sees through the darkness and into the future. From the valley below Chahk spies on Akan.






2. A young, beautiful servant girl, asks Itzamnaaj, the Son of the Creator, a question, as a Humming-Bird sings above them, and a drum beats in the background. They look into each other as though through a mirror. But Itzamnaaj will not answer.







3. The bony living skeleton of The God of Death seats on his cushioned throne, receiving gifts from the peasants, as he sneezes out pearls whilst snakes & lizards crawl out of his back.
