Kisin is the Lacandon god of death and earthquakes, dwelling in the underworld where he burns and torments the souls of the wicked. His restless movements shake the earth, and narratives hold that his eventual unbinding will bring the destruction of the world. He is the adversary of Hachäkyum and is restrained by Sukunkyum. His name is popularly glossed as 'the flatulent one' or 'the stinking one'.
