Summary
[edit]DescriptionMexico-7148 (4764924394).jpg |
English: El-Rey, is in the middle of Cancun Island, literally right in the middle of the most popular resort area in Mexico. Most people are not aware of this site and it is not easy to find the entrance.
Archaeologists estimate that habitation at El Rey by the ancient Maya occurred approximately in 900 AD and continued in part until 1550 AD, ending at the start of the Spanish Conquest. El Rey is translated from Spanish to the "The King" and was named for a ceremonial mask , a sculpture of a nobleman and a skull found on the site that honors the Maya Sun God. The sites ancient name is unknown and is still open to speculation and interpretation. There is known to be at least 47 Maya structures on site with most being minor in design and recognition. The two primary platforms and temples still evident are believed to be the remains of religious ceremonial buildings and market areas. Overall, the site is currently considered minor in relative importance and size to the other Maya Ruins sites in the region such as Chichen Itza, Uxmal, Coba and Tulum but does give visitors the opportunity to experience the Maya of the past without leaving Cancun. |
