the ball in pok-a-tok is made out of rubber from a tree
also, well hehe its actually odd, because my class was watching a documentary on the mayans, and it says the winner of the pok-a-tok match is "honorable" enough to put their team leader up to the stands and they use him or her for a sacrifice for the gods of which they believe in.
BUT there is a contradiction. I was doing cornell notes and in my studies book it says that the LOSER of the match has to put their team captAin up for sacrifice.
some other facts are that the mayans only used their hips, knees, and elbows for this game to hit the ball into a ring that has been mounted at the top of the should i say; boundries.
