  Popol Vuh 3 Chapter 4
And in the same way Tohil was the name of the god of the Tamub who received the grandfather and father of the Lords of Tamub, whom we know today.
Tohil was also the name of the god who was received by the grandfathers and the fathers of the lords, whom we also know today.
In this way, the three Quiché [families] were given their names and they did not separate, because they had a god of the same name, Tohil of the Quiché, Tohil of the Tamub and [Tohil] of the Ilocab; one only was the name of the god, and therefore the three Quiché [families] did not separate.

 Acoyauh's Translation of the Popol Vuh
Tohil rubbed a stone with one of his sandals and it brought forth a spark, then a light and immediately the fire.
From then, Tohil spilled on all his benevolence and his love, without forgetting to exert his power, worthy conduct of a God that knows how to fill the spirits with hope and peace.
As soon as Tohil was silent, the Old Ones began to walk the roads to apprehend strange travelers, and they put them under torture twisting their feet and hands with wood forks.

And this was the opening [of the breasts] about which Tohil had spoken; that they should sacrifice all the tribes before him, that they should tear out their hearts from their breasts.
Immediately afterward Tohil, Avilix, and Hacavitz were turned to stone, together with the deified beings 6 the puma, the jaguar, the snake, the cantil, and the hobgoblin.
Then the persecution of the young of the birds and of the deer began, and the fruit of the chase was received by the priests and sacrificers.

 Aether the Odyssey - News: Pantheon
Like Onatha, Tohil is more popular among the "settled" Sylvan tribes, where life is a little more stable and individuals have more time to devote to the arts.
It is this area which Tohil presides over, for he is the god of weaving, painting, carving, and general craftsmanship.
Tohil is the god Sylvans call upon when they wish to make a particularly beautiful or inspirational item, and talented Sylvan artists are said to be blessed by him.

Tohil Mons rises 5.4 kilometers (18,000 feet) above Io's surface, according to analysis of stereo imaging from earlier Galileo flybys of Io.
The new images, with a resolution of 327 meters (1,070 feet) per picture element, were taken when the Sun was low in the sky, producing informative shadows.
However, two volcanic craters do lie directly to the northeast of Tohil's peak, a smaller dark-floored one and a larger one at the very edge of the mosaic.

The large white patch in southwestern Tohil Patera is rich in sulfur dioxide, and comparison with higher-resolution views (for example, PIA03527) suggests that this might be a region of cold sulfur dioxide flows.
The small white patches on the mountain Tohil Mons might be deposits of sulfur dioxide snow that accumulate in grooves and at the bases of steep slopes in colder areas on the mountain.
Although Tohil Mons rises up to 6 kilometers (19,700 feet) above Io's plains, it is difficult to see in this image because the Sun was behind Galileo at the time it was taken.

And their hearts became weary of searching and following them on the roads, because the beings of Tohil, Avilix, and Hacavitz were so great that the latter withdrew to the summit of the mountains, in the vicinity of the people, whom they killed.
Tohil, Avilix, and Hacavitz had the appearance of three youths and walked by virtue of the magic stone.
If they are Tohil, Avilix, and Hacavitz, then we shall overcome them first, and afterward, we shall begin the destruction of the priests and sacrificers." This, many of them said, when they talked.

Much hail fell on all the tribes and the fire was put out because of it, and again the fire was extinguished.
"Oh, Tohil, we are truly dying of cold!" they said to Tohil.

Tohil Mons rises some 5.4 kilometers (18,000 feet) above the surface of Jupiter's moon Io.
This has allowed planetary model maker David Angus to reproduce Tohil Mons as a sculpture for SMS Inc., offered for the first time anywhere.
The original close-up view for this model of the icy surface of Europa, a moon of Jupiter, was obtained on December 20, 1996, by the Solid State Imaging system on board the Galileo spacecraft during its fourth orbit around Jupiter.

Scientists pointed NASA's Galileo spacecraft camera at the Tohil region of Jupiter's moon Io to investigate the curious relationship between Io's mountains and its volcanoes.
This mosaic of Galileo images taken Oct. 16, 2001, shows details of the mountain called Tohil Mons (lower left), a small dark-floored volcanic crater, or "patera," bordered by mountain walls (middle), and intricate patterns of dark lava flows intertwined with bright material on the floor of a larger crater, Tohil Patera (upper right).
The new images were taken soon after sunrise at Tohil, with a resolution of 50 meters (160 feet) per picture element to reveal details never seen before.

Tohil as a compositional group, however, does not correspond very well with Tohil as a stylistic unit made up of fancy incised or effigy vessels.
The simple vessels in both compositional categories, that is in both San Juan and Tohil, occur with other good Late and Terminal Classic diagnostics on the South Coast.
In this scenario the innovative Tohil vessels come in at the end of the Pantaleón phase and mark the dividing line between the old Early Postclassic and Late Postclassic periods.

Tohil Mons, Io Images taken at different times and from different positions by NASA's Galileo spacecraft provide information about the three-dimensional structure of a large mountain named Tohil Mons on Jupiter's moon Io.
Because topography is difficult to distinguish on Io unless the Sun is low enough to cast shadows, the second part of this release is a stereo image of Tohil Mons that was created from two mosaics acquired on Oct. 11, 1999, and Feb.
The first of these is a topographic representation of what Tohil Mons looks like when seen from the northeast.

 The Popol Vuh
Also had the fire of the tribes gone out and they were perishing of the cold, but when they came to the patriarchs and asked for fire, they were not well received.
The three tribal gods, Tohil, Avilix and Hacavitz, were turned into stone, as were also the gods connected with the lion, the tiger, the viper, and other fierce and dangerous animals.
(27) There is a resemblance between Tohil's demand and that of the third chapter of the Gita: "With this nourish the gods, that the Gods may nourish you," etc. Most translators think the demand was for human sacrifice, an interpretation possibly supported by subsequent events; but when human sacrifice was practised, the gods were hidden.

Other images show a mountain called Tohil Mons, which at 18,000 feet (5,400 meters) is nearly as tall as Alaska's Mount McKinley.
The recent flybys also confirmed that Io's magnetic field is driven by the powerful field of nearby Jupiter, said Margaret Kivelson, of the University of California, Los Angeles.

Dramatic shadows sweep across a mountainous landscape on Jupiter's moon Io revealing a mysterious peak named Tohil Mons - a mountain that shouldn't exist.
Tohil Mons is considered to be one of the most geologically complex mountains in our Solar System.
Despite its volcanic origins, Tohil Mons shows further evidence of forming from other mountains through tectonic and erosional (collapse) processes, in part due to viscous silicic (silica-rich volcanic rock or magma) volcanic activity.

The Tohil group not only includes background tradition vessels, but also lamp chimneys, Tohil jars, effigies, figurines, and other forms typical of the fancy Tohil style (see Neff 1984 for descriptions).
The San Juan and Tohil source zones do not overlap, and both are quite localized on the lower coastal plain near the present México-Guatemala border.
The Tohil Plumbate compositional group, which includes vessels in this fancy style, is now clearly linked with raw materials sampled along the lower reaches of the Río Cahuacan in southern Chiapas, México.
