About this listen

The Popol Vuh is undoubtedly the most important Maya text that survived the systematic destruction of the Maya codices at the hands of the Spanish. This is the definitive edition of the Popol Vuh, a new translation that makes the text accessible and enjoyable to listen to.

Moreover, this new edition gives the listener a detailed introduction to the Maya culture, the Maya calendar, the Maya numerals, and a new short story about how Father Ximénez found the Popol Vuh. If you're interested in the ancient Maya civilization, this is the audiobook to download.
