Om episode

This week Maddie & Tucker (possibly both ADD at this point) delve into the second book of Maya creation myths: Xibalba, the Mayan Underworld. This a retelling of the Hero Twins who conquered death, and the creepy citizens of the land of death. These stories come straight from the Popol Vuh, the compilation of Maya sacred text comparable to the Greek Odyssey. Maddie also has a small segment on the Mayan language and its interesting and enduring presence in the Americas. If you'd like to purchase your own copy of the Popol Vuh, you can buy the book I mentioned liking the best in the episode here: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781632062406 If you have any myths, stories, ghost stories, hauntings, questions, suggestions, feedback, corrections, or if you would like to become a sponsor for future episodes please email us at : addstoryteller@gmail.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/addstoryteller/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/addstoryteller/support
