Book Description
Excerpt from The Popol Vuh: The Mythic and Heroic Sagas of the Kiches of Central America Scherzer at once made a copy of the Spanish translation of the manuscript, which he published at Viennain 1856 under the title of Las Historias del origen do laa ladies do Guatemala, par cl R. P. Francisco Kimonos. The Abbe llrasseur also took a copy of the original, whieh he published at Paris in 1861, with the title Vah l'opol: Le Livre Sacre de Quiches, et lcs Mythes do l'anti quite Americaine. In this work the Kiche original and the Abhe's French translation are set forth side by side. Unfortunately both the Spanish and the French translations leave much to be desired so far as their accuracy is concerned.

Book Description
There is no document of greater importance to the study of the pre-Columbian mythology of America than the "Popol Vuh." It is the chief source of our knowledge of the mythology of the Kiché people of Central America, and it is further of considerable comparative value when studied in conjunction with the mythology of the Nahuatlacâ, or Mexican peoples. This interesting text, the recovery of which forms one of the most romantic episodes in the history of American bibliography, was written by a Christianised native of Guatemala sometime in the seventeenth century, and was copied in the Kiché language, in which it was originally written, by a monk of the Order of Predicadores, one Francisco Ximenes, who also added a Spanish translation and scholia.
