VALVERDE VALDES, María del Carmen. Un "alzamiento de indios" en Nebaj, Guatemala, en 1798. Estud. cult. maya [online]. 2005, vol.26, pp.117-125. ISSN 0185-2574.

On the dawn of the colonial period, in a very hard situation of famine and disease, not very different from others that had already occurred at the Mayan area, a rebellion broke out in a small Guatemalan village, also alike many others that took place during the Colony. Even though, the beginning -the grave-yard had being moved- was dissimilar and take us to the deepest mayan ideas around life, death and sacred spaces.
