Detail InformationEdit

Oxkintok is a pre-Columbian Maya archaeological site on the Yucatán Peninsula, located at the northern tip of the Puuc hills – a few kilometers to the east of the modern town of Maxcanú, Yucatán, Mexico.
The site has provided evidence of habitation from the Late Preclassic through the Late Postclassic periods of Maya prehistory. However, Oxkintok became a major center between the Early Classic and Terminal Classic periods (including what Carmen Varela terms the “Middle Classic”). It is well known as possessing a very early Long Count date in AD 475 (on the lintel of Structure 6 in the “Canul” group). The latest dated monument at the site records a date in AD 859.
The site of Oxkintok is a protected “zona”, open to visitors with an admission fee. It is accessible from the nearby town of Maxcanú, approximately 62 km (38.5mi) south of Mérida on Federal Highway 180. The site lacks facilities, but is attended by guides. Nearby attractions include the Calcehtok caves.
