Pedro Cholotío Temó is the first principal of San Juan la Laguna on the shore of Lake Atitlán, Guatemala. James D. Sexton is a Regents’ Professor emeritus of anthropology at Northern Arizona University.
“The hills are alive with the sound of history! Five hundred years after Pedro Alvarado’s invasion of Iximulew (Land of Maize, also known as Guatemala), these stories passed down from one generation to another show the durability and truths of traditional Maya oral history. This is a treasure trove of stories with insight into how communities sustain their world views across generations—and into the cosmic consequences for showing disrespect for community norms, social harmony, and environmental stewardship.” - Liza Grandia, author of Kernels of Resistance: Maize, Food Sovereignty, and Collective Power “Longtime readers of Sexton’s collaborative work with CholotÍo TemÓ will find this volume full of new stories told by a familiar voice, while those encountering CholotÍo TemÓ’s storytelling for the first time will be introduced to the powerful role that storytelling continues to play in Maya communities. With stories addressing everything from supernatural beings to recent hurricanes and the COVID-19 pandemic, this volume of stories underscores how we, to paraphrase the Zapatista slogan, truly inhabit a world of many worlds.” - Paul M. Worley, author of Telling and Being Told: Storytelling and Cultural Control in Contemporary Yukatek Maya Literatures
