Archaeologists Just Found a Maya Board Game That Survived 15 Centuries Underground

Mexican artistic director Jorge Díaz has created a unique stage adaptation of the Maya myth Popol Vuh. Inspired by bedtime stories he shared with his son, Díaz blends circus arts with theater in "Mortal Leap into Xib’alb’a." The show reimagines the journey of hero twins Ixbalanqué and Hunahpú through the Maya underworld. Díaz and Jessica González founded the troupe Tránsito Cinco, initially a theater company, which evolved into circus arts. The performance, aimed at children and families, explores themes of rebirth and transformation, reflecting the Maya view of death as a chance for renewal.
