===Origin of Sun and Moon===
The origin of Sun and Moon is not always the outcome of a marriage with the Earth. From Chiapas and the western Guatemalan Highlands comes the tale of Younger Brother and his jealous Elder Brethren: Youngest One becomes the Sun, his mother becomes the Moon, and the Elder Brethren are transformed into wild pigs and other forest animals.<ref>Bierhorst 1990: 110-111</ref> In a comparable way, the Elder Brethren of the ''Popol Vuh'' Twin myth are transformed into monkeys, with their younger brothers becoming Sun and Moon. To the west of the Maya area, the transformation of two brothers into sun and moon is the main subject of many tales.<ref>Chinchilla Mazariegos 2017: 164-168</ref>
