Lencan mythology information


Lencan figure known as "The flying god".

Lenca mythology is the set of religious and mythological beliefs of the Lenca people from Honduras and El Salvador, before and after the conquest of America.[1] Little of these beliefs have been documented, due to colonization and the adoption of the Catholic faith after the 16th century.
