A Small Temple Pyramid - Balamku Mayan Ruins

Balamku in the state of Campeche in Southern Mexico is a small site about which very little appears to be known. The oldest buildings on the site date back to 300 BC while the most recent ones were constructed between AD 300-600. The site is famous for an almost intact 16.8-metre (55 ft) long stucco frieze, one of the largest surviving friezes in the Mayan world dating from AD 550–650, which is located in the Temple of The Jaguar (not the one above - pics to come later). Balam means guardian and also jaguar. K'u means temple.
