What is hunab ku?

Hunab Ku is a Mayan deity that represents the supreme god and creator of the universe. The name Hunab Ku translates to "sole god" or "only god." In Mayan mythology, Hunab Ku is believed to be the source of all creation and the energy that powers the cosmos. However, some scholars argue that Hunab Ku was not originally a traditional Mayan deity but was instead introduced later as a representation of a monotheistic concept in the post-classic period. Hunab Ku is often depicted as a circular symbol with eight rays radiating outward, representing the four cardinal points and the four intercardinal points. Worship of Hunab Ku is not as widespread as the worship of other Mayan deities, but the concept of a supreme creator god is present in many indigenous Mesoamerican cultures.
