Bush upsets the spirits

Mayan priests will purify a sacred archaeological site to eliminate "bad spirits". Juan Tiney, the director of a Mayan nongovernmental organization with close ties to Mayan religious and political leaders said the "spirit guides of the Mayan community" decided it would be necessary to cleanse the sacred site of "bad spirits" after Bush's visit so that their ancestors could rest in peace. He also said the rites — which entail chanting and burning incense, herbs and candles — would prepare the site for the third summit of Latin American Indians March 26-30.
