The Mayans considered the sea a source of food and transport, but it was also a source of devastation and death as the sea and other water bodies as like cenotes were entries to Xibalba, the underworld.
For more than 1000 years, people from all over the Land of the Maya made a trip year after year to worship the goddess Ixchel (http://www.mayanexplore.com/mayan-gods/ixchel)
