has gloss	por: As Línguas gestuais maias (no Brasil: Línguas de sinais maias) são línguas gestuais usadas no México e na Guatemala, por comunidades maias (essas sociedades têm altas taxas de surdez hereditária, não habituais). Em alguns casos, tanto ouvintes como surdos podem usar a língua gestual.
