Source: Excerpt from the Popul Vuh, creation myth of the Maya
We will now return to the story of man's creation by the Creators and Makers Tepew and Q'uk'umatz.
"The time for the first dawn has arrived, and we must complete our creation. Let man and all of humanity appear on the earth's surface. Humankind will give us our sustenance," they said. They came together in the darkness to think and reflect. This is how they came to decide on the right material for the creation of man. They had to hurry because there was little time left before the sun, the moon and the stars would appear in the sky. The corn used to create the first men was found in the place called Paxil and K'ayala'. Yak the wildcat, Utiw the coyote, K'el the parrot, and Joj the crow were the creatures who discovered this food. They were the ones who showed the way to Paxil so that the corn could be brought back. And that is how the beautiful place where abundant white and yellow corn grew was discovered. All kinds of fruits and seeds, including beans, cacao, zapote, anona, wild plums, nance, white zapote and honey were also to be found in Paxil and K'ayala'.
