How all this started.... "I
came to Cancun in 1990 for my first time for a vacation. And me, as
many other people, had lost of questions of the Maya civilization.
Why this place with so poor land, no rivers neither gold or silver
hosted a very amazing civilization? What about those strange legends
about UFO's and the Maya virgins sacrificed at the sacred cenote?
Well, the destiny had arranged everything. In
1992 I was send to work in Cancun and had lots of time to research
and some years later (1994), I became a tour guide so, I was doing
exactly what my heart and passion told me to do: history.
And some strange night of May, 1997, I decided to write down all the
references that I could find about the Maya civilization. Some of
them were legends, some others were serious facts or theories, some
others were merely gossip.
Then, my manuscripts were thick... and tourists
helped me a lot. They told me their most important questions and
doubts about Maya civilization. I thank those thousands of tourists
for helping me creating my first book: Maya-Mexico.com, as
they also helped me inspiring me to write my second book, Maya
Compendia, which has exceeded many expectations.
Thanks a lot to all of you! Sincerely,
José (Pepe) Hernandez.
