Description

This volume captures the essence of Belizean oral tradition, a wonderful mosaic of tales and legends which reflects the fascinating cultural diversity of Belize. These stories of supernatural occurrences, entertaining tricksters and mythical animals have roots that extend centuries back into Africa, the ancient Maya kingdom and Europe. In Belize they have now coalesced and evolved into a truly unique oral literature that testifies to the emergence of a national cultural identity.
