The Maya creation stories tell of Maya being created from cornmeal by a creator god. Some say that the Maya people walked fully formed out of a cave from underneath a big mountain after gods wanted someone to worship them. There is DNA evidence that the Maya (and perhaps all American Indians) are the descendants of people who migrated to the Americas from Asia many thousands of years ago.
