Huminodun

Huminodun is a sacred ancestral maiden in the Nunuk Ragang cycle of Kadazan‑Dusun tradition whose voluntary sacrifice ends a famine and, according to the legend, gives rise to cultivated staple crops (especially rice) and the ritual institutions of Momolianism including the bobohizan priesthood.

Hun Hunahpu

Hun Hunahpu is a mythic ancestral figure in the Kʼicheʼ Maya Popol Vuh narrative: one of two brothers (with Vucub‑Hunahpu) who were lured into Xibalba, sacrificed, and whose severed head was suspended in a trophy tree and changed to a calabash. The calabash-head's juice impregnates Xquic, producing the Hero Twins (Hunahpu and Xbalanque); later the Twins recover their fathers' remains but cannot fully resuscitate them. Some scholars compare Hun Hunahpu with the Classic-period Tonsured Maize God, though this identification is debated in the sources provided.
