MAYAN BALL GAME


An unusual game of ball - a cross between volleyball & soccer, using only the hips, elbows & forearms (no hands or feet). The ball represented the moon & the sun & the court represented earth. The game itself was very sacred. According to ancient rituals, the losers were decapitated!
