... the heavens. This belief was especially common in the New World: The idea that the sun was not eternal was shared by other American Indian tribes so widely that we consider it must have been part of their belief long before any high culture had arisen in the Americas' [6 ]. The Popol Vuh, lauded as the Mayan Bible', attests to the same idea. In it a previous sun' is described as follows: Like a man was the sun when it showed itself ?

They will be readily found with the aid of any reference Bible, and yield easily to the cosmological key proposed in these pages.
