Abstract
The Ancient Maya idea of the world around us was evidently different from ours. But how different? This article discusses the role of men, animals, and supernatural beings in Maya iconography: how they are depicted in the art, what designations the Maya gave to different entities, and how various beings took attributes of other beings in Maya thinking – and in the art and writings that reflect it.
