Résumé

This book deals with the story of the Maya : their Civilization, Customs and Legends. The ancient Maya emerged probably during the first or second century of the Christian Era. In general it may be said that the Maya culture occupied the peninsula of Yucatan, portions of the states of Tabasco and Chiapas in Mexico, Guatemala, and the northern part of Honduras. That branch of the Mayas who called themselves the Itzas occupied the southern portion of Yucatan and the greater part, of what is now the Department of Peten in Guatemala.
