The World Of Mythology series introduces the myths of the world's greatest civilizations. The Aztec and Mayan civilizations both had a rich collection of myths that sought to explain and define the natural world and their own customs and beliefs.

Discover the role of religion in these incredibly sophisticated cultures, including the significance of the "fifth sun", and visit the extraordinary cities of Tenochtitlan and Palenque. Art and artifacts, as well as photographs of the landscapes immortalized in the tales, bring the worlds of Aztec and Mayan myth to life.
