Ocomtún, with large pyramid-like buildings, stone columns, a ball field and imposing buildings and plazas, was likely an important city, according to anthropologists.
I had the fortune of knowing, and calling a friend, a student at Colegio de Mexico that studied archeology. He was on quite a few digs to study Aztec and Mayan ruins. I couldn’t perfectly articulate much of what he impressed on me, but what I can accurately say is that there is still so, incredibly much we have to learn about the civilizations of the pre-colonial Americas.

This is an exciting find, for sure.
