Here is # 4 in my “Ancient Cultures” series- Ancient Maya! These ponies are all based on ancient cultures- their customs, history, and myths. Each one is special, for more reasons then just appearance!
-All of the ponies are based on a different culture.
-They all come in unusual colors and/or patterns.
- All of them have a special accessory.
-They are all customizable- you can have painted markings (like glyphs, etc.) added if you win them, all you have to do is ask!
- All of these ponies can pass down accessories to their foals! Not just the ones you see either!
In order to win this fella, just fill out the form! I will be judging on effort in the creative area, interesting names, and of course, correct answers in the trivia portion! Don’t worry if you aren’t sure of the answers, correct answers boost your likelihood of winning him, but a good creative piece goes just as well.
This stallion’s foals can have: Hoop Earring, Feathered Hair Clip (Shown), Feathered Tail Ornament (Shown). (Some accessories might cost a bit extra to get, depending on how difficult they are, colors can be chosen by you.)
The Mayan never really saw Spanish conquistadors- or, history isn't sure of that- but the Aztecs were surprised to see horses, as horses died out in the Americas thousands of years before them. So, what if the Mayan had met this little bright-colored pony? What would they think? I want you to write a Mayan legend based on this little guy. Be he a monster, legendary beast, or even a god!

Did the Mayans practice human sacrifice?motives is speculating. It probably was not because they didn't value human life. On the contrary, they were making a true sacrifice when they shed blood, and this they did in many forms, in addition to loss of life. Maya priests used obsidian knives, stingray spines, and knotted cords to draw blood from their own bodies as offerings to a god.
