Popol Vuh Museum

Museo Popol Vuh, Guatemala City

Museo Popol Vuh, Guatemala City

  Our first sight-seeing trip in Guatemala.  This museum is in Zona 10 of Guatemala City.  Greg has been reading “Time Among the Maya: Travels in Belize, Guatemala, and Mexico” by Ronald Wright.  The book includes excerpts from the Popol Vuh, a narrative history of the Quiche Mayan.  The museum is named after this narrative.

 

  Museo Popol Vuh contains a large display of  Mayan art and artifacts as well as a small collection of items from the colonial era.
