CABRAKAN
Maya Mountain God
Also known as Cabracan
God of Mountains
He particularly likes earthquakes too.
The son of Hell-God Vucub Caquix, he’s a mountain giant hell-bent on destruction. But the Hero twins Hunahpu and Xbalanque stopped his destructive ways by giving him poisoned fowls to eat. Then he was buried alive. That’s known as fowl play.
His giant brother Zipacna came to a similar end.
