Chichen Itza
translates to mean" mouth of the well of Itza." Chichen
is the best known, best restored, and arguably most
impressive Mayan ruin. It's also not entirely Mayan.
Chichen got off the ground around 550 AD. Like most
Mayan cities, Chichen was abandoned in the 10th century,
then resettled around 1000 AD. Abandoned again in the
14th century, but it remained the site for pilgrimages
for many years. Chichen had two principal wells, or
cenote: one sacred and the other for everyday needs. The
sacred well, a largish 195 feet across by 120 feet deep,
was used in worship, and offerings were continually made
to it. |

Other spectacular sites are
Tulum,
Palenque,
Copan
and
Uxmal, just some of the hundreds of
ruins.
There are many other Mayan ruins
to see in the Southern Mexico region. Many of the
Mayan sites are located near the Yucatan Peninsula,
spilling over to the lowland rainforests of Mexico to
the east and Belize in the west & some of
Guatemala.
