Landing:
It is never really established if there were original Mayan gods to start with, it could have been the reds the whole time. I am sure someone wants to jump in now and point of that it says in the book that the red king was afraid of the Mayan gods returning but let me point out that that particular quote also mentions that it could be that he is afraid of it being a archangel or spirit of light and most of all let me point out that this is Harry's opinion of what the red king could be thinking. Harry forming his opinion based on a few seconds glance at the red king and extrapolating from that. The red king is a being that is thousands of years old that Harry has never met before in his life. I think its a long shot that Harry is able to guess exactly what he his thinking.
And on top of that even if Harry did guess correctly as to what the King was thinking in that instant that still does not offer proof that there ever were Mayan gods after all even the red king who is like I said before thousands of years old and has presumably lived in that region for most of that time doesn't really believe that there ever where Mayan gods. He would be a pretty good person to know if there were some wouldn't he?
Having said all that I will now contradict what yall are thinking and say that I do believe that the Mayan gods did exist and I myself wonder what happened to them since I don't think the Red Court would have had the power to destroy them or drive them off. Now you are wondering if I do in fact believe in the Mayan gods existing why did I wast all that time writing about how we don't really know if they ever did. Well I guess I just like to be exsact in my understanding of the facts and also like to argue with myself so I might as well make you all privy to what goes on in my head. ;)
--- Quote ---He knew only that it had hurt him when he had tried to murder the child. From his perspective, it could have been almost anything—an archangel standing guard, or a spirit of light as terrible as the Ick had been foul. I thought back to the voice coming from Murphy’s mouth, pronouncing judgment upon the Red Court, and suddenly understood what was making the Red King hesitate, what he was really thinking: that the entity over the altar might be something he did not think actually existed—like maybe the real Kukulcan.

Either way, I'll add this to the list- do we need an asterisk, or not?

That's what I assumed happened, makes the most sense to me.
