This study examines the work of the Dominican Friar Domingo de Vico, specifically his theology of or for the "Indians," the Theologia Indorum, written originally in K'iche' Maya in 1553-1554. While scholarship in recent decades has focused on the first post- contact writings by autochthonous Americans, particularly the Popol Wuj, or Mayan "Council Book," and the early impact of Hispano-Catholicism, little attention has been paid to the influence of indigenous religion on colonial Christianity. Therefore, this study critically examines the first use of Mayan myths in Christian literature for a more nuanced understanding of the mutual dynamics between missionaries and the missionized as well as the distinctions between missionary translation strategies in the early formative decades of first contact.
