    So, I am finished with the map, now I just need to color it

    So a little info about what I am doing here.

    Did a little research on Mayan glyphs. They are written in Pairs, and read as shown below.

    Additionally, I copied some of the Glyphs, others I made up, and some I changed up from originals.

    Finally, the script on the right, the CITY/TOWN symbols match the map, and the large icons are to represent the chief Deity worshiped there.

    From top to bottom:

    The first two I made up the Symbol as I hadn't hit on this idea yet

    Third is a Version of Everyone's most wellknown God: Quezalcoatl.

    Fourth, is a stylized version of Tlaloc, or the Rain God.

    5th is Xiuhtecuhtli, Personification of Life after Death, Warmth in Cold, etc. Basically a Duality God.

    6th is finally another rendition of Quetzalcoatl.

    Never use a big word when a diminutive one will suffice!
