True. This event is from the Popol Vuh, an ancient Mayan religious text that contains various creation myths. In one of these myths, the animals and household items that were created by the gods turned against the manikins, who were the first humans created. They threatened to eat the manikins in revenge for the pain and suffering they had caused them in the past.
