To some of the K'iche' descendants of the Maya people living in the vicinity, the area is still associated with death. Cave systems in nearby Belize have also been referred to as the entrance to Xibalba. Another physical incarnation of the road to Xibalba as viewed by the K'iche' peoples is the dark rift which is visible in the Milky Way.
In Maya mythology Xibalba, roughly translated as "Place of fear", is the name of the underworld, ruled by Mayan spirits of disease and death. In the 16th-century Verapaz, the entrance to Xibalba was traditionally held to be a cave in the vicinity of Cobán, Guatemala.
Xibalbá is not a God of Death... it is a place, much like the Christian Hell, with nine layers and Demon Princes who play terrible games with the souls of the damned.
This is a beautiful soundtrack... just heavenly and magnificent. Love this movie, love Clint Mansell. D.R.
Song used in the marvelous series The Arrivals :)
