|description=Whence the Hivites who, according to some Roman Catholic commentators, descend from Heth, son of Canaan, son of Ham, “the accursed”. Brasseur de Bourbourg, the missionary translator of the Scripture of the Guatemalians, the ''Popol Vuh, ''indulges in the theory that the ''Hivim ''of the ''Quetzo Cohuatl'', the Mexican Serpent Deity, and the “descendants of Serpents” as they call themselves, are identical with the descendants of Ham (! !) “whose ancestor is Cain”. Such is the conclusion, at any rate, drawn from Bourhourg’s writings by Des Mousseaux, the demonologist. Bourbourg hints that the chiefs of the name of Votan, the Quetzo Cohuati, are the descendants of Ham and Canaan. “I am Hivim”, they say. “ Being a Hivim, I am of the great Race of the Dragons. I am a snake, myself, for I am a Hivim’ (''Cortes ''51). But Cain is allegorically shown as the ancestor of the Hivites, the Serpents, because Cain is held to have been ''the first initiate in the mystery of procreation. ''The “race of the Dragons” or Serpents means the Wise Adepts. The names ''Hivi ''or Hivite, and Levi—signify a Serpent “; and the Hivites or Serpent‐tribe of Palestine, were, like all Levites and Ophites of Israel, ''initiated ''Ministers to the temples, i.e., Occultists, as are the priests of Quetzo Cohuatl. The Gibeonites whom Joshua assigned ''to the service of the sanctuary ''were Hivites. (See ''Isis Unveiled'', Vol. II. 481.) {{etg-source|TG}}.
