Editorial Reviews

"Mayalogue is not just an informative study about Maya prophetic cycles, beliefs, world renewal, and how to better understand Indigenous cultures. It is about how to be Indigenous in a globalized world. It is also a call to critically evaluate, appreciate, and incorporate the historic past into modern life in a way that respects the Maya cosmic trinity. Mayalogue is a fascinating book that will appeal to scholars of religious studies, the anthropology of religion, and Indigenous studies. It is a useful and important addition to the literature of decolonization and perspectival anthropology." - Nova Religio

"Montejo has produced a book worthy of consideration, particularly by undergraduates receiving their first exposure to Maya culture and those with interests in epistemology and the comparative study of knowledge systems that take Indigenous worldviews seriously." - The Mayanist
