Archaeologists from the University of Houston have made a significant discovery at Caracol in Belize, Central America, uncovering the tomb of Te K’ab Chaak. He was the first ruler and founder of the royal dynasty of this ancient Maya city.
Although now in ruins, Caracol was once a major political force in Maya history, exerting influence over the southern Yucatan Peninsula from 560 to 680 AD before being abandoned by 900 AD.
This discovery marks the first identifiable ruler’s tomb found after more than forty years of research at Caracol, which is recognized as both Belize’s largest Maya archaeological site and one of the most extensive in the Maya lowlands. Te K’ab Chaak ascended to power in 331 AD and was laid to rest at a royal family shrine with an array of artifacts including eleven pottery vessels, carved bone tubes, jadeite jewelry, a mosaic jadeite mask, Pacific spondylus shells, and other perishable items.
