1. Guided Tour in the Archaeological Site of Kohunlich

 

 

This site was first visited by the American archaeologist Raymond Merwin, when the place was known by the name of Clarksville, referring to the logging camp three kilometers north of the monumental area of ​​Kohunlich.


According to experts, Kohunlich must have been founded around the year 259 of our era during the so-called Classic period Maya before being abandoned and forgotten until not long ago, when slowly began to expose some vestiges of what were their imposing pyramidal structures and the remains of some sacred buildings where surely inhabited the high officials of religion, politics and public administrators. Undoubtedly, the most notable of these buildings is a unique pyramid decorated with multiple masks that still retain traces of their original red pigment, which show the face of a Mayan god among ancient Indians represented the powers of the sun.

These huge masks that can measure up to 2 meters high, look complex touched on those achieved to distinguish the traditional symbols with which the ancient Maya represented the celestial band; also wearing earmuffs and bezotes, among other jewels that adorned Maya artists always face the mighty sun god.


Surely, to decorate their buildings with these huge masks, the ancient Maya made of these buildings, the palatial home of their supreme gods, thus reinforcing the link between men and the creative forces of the universe.

 

 

>> This activity consists of a guided tour in The Archaeological Site of Kohunlich, where we will visit the imposing structures, figureheads and one of the best preserved ball game estructure that is among the pyramidal bases of this archaeological site.
