quote
In the Yucatec Maya Chilam Balam of Chumayel, the
story of maize is couched in ritual language from which it
is difficult to extract a complete outline, but it is clear
that before heaven and earth there was a maize spirit,
referred to as the “three cornered jade stone,” who remained
within the maize, later emerging with long locks of hair.
Apparently maize was hidden within a stone pillar in this
rendition, but the story is obscure here [36, p. 107, 55,
p. 351]. The three cornered stone refers to the maize ear, represented
during the Maya Classic period as sometimes
pointed pendant jadeite celts, occasionally alone, but typically
in groups of three [52, p. 42]. Because the Chilam
Balam refers to creation here, it is of note that the cosmic
hearth of creation, the “First-Three-Stone-Place” identified
by Freidel, Schele, and Parker [15, p. 69, 79] from Palenque
inscriptions, consists of three stars forming an equilateral
triangle hanging from Orion’s belt in the constellation
seen as the giant Orion. This hearth of creation is identified
as a Quiché hearth by contemporary Quiché speakers
(Figure 42-3).

A book could be written on maize represented in Maya
hieroglyphic writing, and indeed should be.
