In this paper I propose to apply hermeneutics for interpreting sacred architectures in the Maya region. In particular, the E Group of Uaxactun is the case study in which some theoretical discussions are being implemented. In this preliminary hermeneutical reflection, contemporary ceremonies, narratives and Indigenous Peoples play key roles. This reflection is aligned with postcolonial studies and historical criticism. The results shown here are preliminary, but it is expected that they trigger further discussions in the spirit of better understand the deep meanings of Maya ceremonial spaces and contemporary rituals.
