Archaeologists discover ancient palace in eastern Mexico likely used by Mayan elite. It's said to be over 1000-years-old

An archeologist works cleaning the stucco of the Temple of the U, located in the archaelogy area of Kuluba, in Tizimin, Yucatan state, Mexico in this handout photograph released to Reuters by the National Institute of Anthropology and History on December 24, 2019

The remains of the six-metre high building, 55 metres long and 15 metres wide suggest the palace was inhabited for two long periods between 600-1050 AD, the National Institute of Anthropology and History said in a statement. The palace was discovered in the east of the Kuluba archaeological zone, a key pre-Hispanic site in Mexico’s Yucatan state.

Kuluba had important ties with the Maya cities of Ek’ Balam and more crucially, Chichen Itza, falling under its influence and becoming part of its network of trade and territory.
