AncientPages.com – In the Mayan supernatural world, we meet many gods with very specific attributes and special functions assigned to the gods.
Then Maya gods had human characteristics and had or represented animal forms. Most of the Mayan gods embodied the celestial bodies or powerful forces of nature such as rain, lightning, wind or thunder.
Maya admired them, had to show them obedience and make sacrifices, often from their own blood. Certain gods were feared by Maya, especially those associated with death, because these people were much more afraid of death than other cultures of Mesoamerica.
