The Mont Saint-Michel is a stunning tidal island in Normandy, France, famous for its dramatic location and its medieval architecture, which includes the beautiful Abbey of Mont Saint-Michel. Under the abbey and its main church is a secret world of crypts and chambers, built to support the mass of the abbey or dug in the rock. In this story, we will explore more than a thousand years of history, along which this medieval wonder formed.

Maya and Aztec Mythology Stories For Sleep - Bedtime ASMR
For thousands of years, cultures rose and disappeared in Mesoamerica. In tonight's episode, we explore Maya and Aztec mythological tales, and I tell you about the sources we have about their legends, their cosmology, and cultural traits that existed across the entire Mesoamerica, like ball games, advanced astronomical knowledge or the cult of a feathered serpent (Kukulkan for the Maya, Quetzalcoatl for the Aztecs...). We also explore the Aztec pantheon and I tell you about Huitzilopchtli, Tlaloc or Tezcatlipoca. Under surprising forms, this heritage can sometimes resurface in contemporary culture, for example with the cult of Santa Muerte. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
