Glowing morning

Climbing the Pacaya volcano near Antigua... The sun appears behind one of the many surrounding volcanoes and the valleys are glowing in a mysterious yellow fog.

Yum K'aax

Since ancient times corn is the most important Maya food and thus the god of corn, Yum K'aax, is the most important of the Maya gods. Each kernel of corn is considered sacred to the Maya and not to be wasted because it not only contains the power to sustain man but also represents the cycle of birth, life, death, and rebirth.
