Tikal

Temple II

The Maya originally settled here in 700 BC.  Around 700 AD, a new and powerful king named Ah-Cacau
(Lord of Chocolate, 682-734 AD), 26th successor of Yax-Moch-Xoc, ascended the throne and restored
Tikal's primacy as the most resplendent Mayan city.  The greatness of Tikal collapsed around 900 AD.
