An archaeological expedition found two ancient Mayan cities, including a monster mouth doorway, in the southeastern corner of the Mexican state of Campeche.
Take a look at the monster mouth photo on the right. Please notice the eyes the ancient Maya sculpted into the rock. They’re just above and on either side of the doorway. The doorway represents the mouth of the monster and will take you into a dark cave-like room.
This monster mouth doorway discovery in Campeche excited me not only because of the find, but also because of what the archaeologist said about it. It sounded very much like a description of one of my scariest memories of Atlantis.

The Witch and the Sorcerer
In Arrival of the Gods in Egypt, I wrote about the sorcerer dwarf on page 154 saying that “I interviewed Santiago Domingez, a modern-day Maya whose family has lived for generations close to Uxmal. He told me the story, handed down from his grandparents, of the witch. She was lonely. Therefore, she took an egg and hatched out of it a dwarf who became her companion.”
I had heard this story before. Possibly I read it in a guidebook or read it in a book about the Maya. In the stories I had read, there was no mention of the witch being lonely. These stories would just proclaim that this witch decided to hatch a dwarf out of an egg which sounded like some nonsensical story fabricated by primitive people to make sense of their world.
However, when I heard the story from Santiago, I saw that the legend had a deeper meaning. Santiago said that the witch was lonely and that it was her loneliness that caused her to hatch the dwarf out of the egg. The story became a creation story on a par with the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Adam was also lonely and had his companion, Eve, was created in an amazing manner.
In Arrival of the Gods in Egypt, I continued by referring to Edgar Cayce’s concept of twin souls. I believe the egg represents the primordial soul that becomes two twin souls.
This legend of the witch and dwarf sorcerer refers to that time when single souls separated into twins. The witch and the dwarf are the twin souls.
While in Yucatan this December, I talked again with Santiago. It was good to see him. I wanted to make sure that I photographed the correct stone carving of the dwarf when I visited Uxmal last January. He assured me that I had. However, he said that researchers at the Uxmal archeological zone said that the carving his grandparents described as the dwarf was actually supposed to be the king. I told Santiago that I took more stock in the traditions of his grandparents than a modern-day researcher’s opinions. Santiago said that since the dwarf became the king it made sense that the carving of the king could also be the dwarf.
I had good reasons for supporting the long-lasting traditions of Santiago’s traditional grandparents. Last January, when we visited Uxmal, we stayed for the nighttime Sound and Light show. To my great disappointment, there was no mention of the Legend of the Sorcerer Dwarf and the Witch. Instead, they told a fabricated story about young men of one village vying for a Mayan princess’s hand or something along that line.
It was a simple story that had nothing to do with the magnificent ruins of Uxmal which reverberate with intrinsic mystery because the main pyramid is named the Pyramid of the Sorcerer or as Santiago calls it, “Piramide de Adivino” and there is also a ruin named the Witch’s House.
Santiago said it also made him sad that the traditional legends were not included in the Sound and Light show.
Definitely disappointing.
