What is the element the gods use to finally make successful humans
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The correct answer is Maize.

Explanation:

Many stories speak of the creation of humans, but especially this speaks of the creation of three species of humans where two of them were destroyed until the last was perfect to what the gods were looking for. This is the story according to the Maya in his book Popol Vuh.

The first creation of the gods was made of mud; the mud people were not productive enough, they did not have the reasoning that the gods wanted, the gods thought that these people only spoke but did not know, so they destroyed them with water.

The second creation was made with wood, although these people were productive, they had no soul, so they could not honor the gods, so they decided to destroy them by sending a flood of boiling water.

The third creation that the gods made was a human-made of white and yellow maize, in addition to the blood of the gods.

The story goes that the men and women who were the result of this creation were too wise for which the gods considered it a threat to the gods and their authority.

Therefore they were sent to destroy, but "<em>Hear of Sky " </em> only clouded their minds and eyes to diminish their wisdom; that is how perfect humans were created since this was the last creation of individuals made by the gods.

<em>I hope this information can help you. </em>
