ENT_PCB_MAM	PER_PCB_POSTCLASSIC_MESOAMERICA	high	Maya 'Grandfather'/ancestral earth figure of the Guatemalan highlands publicly regarded as the indigenous antecedent of the living folk saint Maximon (San Simon). Pre-Columbian source; only publicly attested function modeled, no ritual interiors. In highland Maya Catholic practice the derived folk saint Maximon is publicly identified with San Simon and with Judas Iscariot (Pieper); that identification attaches to the received folk-saint figure rather than to Mam directly.
