People have failed to see that there were different colonies that came at different times, landing in different places in America…

People have failed to see that there were different colonies that came at different times, landing in different places in America…

The different records of the different tribes of Indians in Mexico and Central America disagree as to the coming of their ancestors; one tradition of a colony coming from the east in seven barks or ships, and landing at Panuco, near Tampico; another, of the Olmecs, coming from the east and landing on the point just below Vera Cruz, then going to Laguna de Terminos, Tabasco; another, coming from where the sun sets, or from the west…

Brasseur de Bourbourg says:—

“The Quiche wanderers came from the other side of the sea to the north west coast of America”

In the introduction of the Popol Vuh we read:—

“This is the origin of the ancient history of Quiche. Here we write the annals of the past. We shall bring it to light because the Popol Vuh, the national book, is no longer visible, in which it was clearly seen that we came from beyond the sea."

“It is from where the sun sets we came, from the other side of the sea."

The Quiche traditional history begins with a colony that came across the sea from where the sun sets (west), and the first location after their arrival in America, according to the Popol Vuh, was called Xibalba, pronounced Zabalba…

Here we get the direction in which they crossed the sea…

Notice that this is the ONLY colony whose traditions say that they came from the west…

This colony (either Malayans, Mongoloids or both) from the west crossed the Pacific Ocean, landed near the place where they built their first city, and called it Xibalba…

The Olmecs and the Quinames came from where the sun rises (east), and according to Indian traditions they all came in vessels…

The Quinames, the traditions say, came in seven barks or ships; there were seven families…

They landed at Panuco…

The Olmecs and the Xicalancas came from the east and landed first just below Vera Cruz, then sailing again, they landed at Laguna de Terminos…

This colony from the east crossed the Atlantic Ocean…

This is recorded in the Popol-Vuh, the Quiche history…

The Olmecs and Xicalancas are regarded as the first of the Nahua nations in the regions of Tabasco, and are first noticed by tradition on the southeastern coast, whither they had come in ships from the east…

Of the Nahuas, predecessors of the Toltecs in Mexico, the Olmecs and Xicalancas were the most important…

They were the forerunners of the great nations which followed…

According to Ixt-lil-xochitl, these people, which are conceded to be one, occupied the New World in the third age; “they came from the east in ships."

According to Giovanni Francesco Gemelli Careri, the Olmec traditions relate that they came by sea from the East... 

Some of the traditions state that the Colhuas came from the east in ships…

Sahagun mentions that a tradition to this effect was current in Yucatan…

“The first settlers of New Spain countless years ago, coming in ships from the sea, disembarked at Panutla [Panuco]. From this port they began to follow the coast southward until they reached the province of Guatemala…”

The writings of Sahagun say the ancient Mexicans did not come from the North or Northwest into Mexico...

Sahagun wrote that they arrived by ships coming from the direction of the rising sun (East) and that they landed on the Gulf Coast of Mexico at Panutla (Panuco)

All the "Nahua" people arrived in ships at Panutla, on the Eastern shore of Mexico, and they had come from the direction of the rising sun...

It may be true that some group, or groups, of people immigrated into the North American continent using some lost Bering Strait land bridge, but the Olmecs , Maya and Aztecs were not those people...
