The Popol Vuh
Thought I'd just post this 1hr animated rendition of the Popol Vuh. I've read a couple of Popol Vuh books and this video is fairly accurate. About the only thing I've noticed is the absence of Seven McCaw's two sons being tricked and eliminated by the Hero Twins. But, overall the video gives a very good depiction of the Popol Vuh. Its 1hr and broken up into seven parts.

1. Thank you for this!
I have tried to read written publications and never seem to be able to stick with whatever I find, to the end.

2. What a delight, visually stunning
"They were glad to find out they were ball players instead of farmers."

I guess some things are eternal.

3. I am glad you liked it.
I also have a video called "The Five Suns (A Sacred History of Mexico)". Both as well as others can be ordered from Berkeley Media, however, they are rather expensive.
