Description
Tedlock presents the first direct translation from Quiche Maya to English of ""Rabinal Achi"". The significance of the play is great to scholars and to lay persons as a partial history, by Mayans, of their culture, and as a revelation of the ancient ritual and beliefs toward the nature of sacrifice.
