  • Español: La triste historia de la quema de libros mayas en Maní, Yucatán. La placa traduce: "Aquí en el lugar de Maní, en el año 1562, Fray Diego de Landa llevó a cabo, en el esplendor del convento franciscano, el condenable auto de fe en el que perecieron más de diez mil indígenas y se destruyeron cinco mil ídolos de diferentes formas y tamaños, trece grandes piedras que servían de altares, veintidós pequeñas piedras de uso religioso, veintisiete rollos de escritura jeroglífica grabados en piel de venado que contenían el registro histórico de la cultura y la civilización maya, y ciento noventa y siete vasos ceremoniales que fueron destruidos en la inmensa hoguera del Inquisidor. Incluso después de muchos siglos, el indígena llora en el silencio de la noche; la historia que ha escuchado de sus mayores, en la que se cuenta la destrucción del último reino de los Tutul-Xiu que existió en la provincia de Maní. El Ah Tzol de los Mayas.
    Gaspar Antonio Xiu"
