Abstract

During the Classic period, especially the Late Classic (600-900 AC), one dynasty dominated over the others in the Maya lowlands. The Kaanajaw’obcame to control a large territory, through a network of alliances that allowed them to control the rise of new lords in different strategic centers. Nonetheless, their original and final sites are still being discussed among the scholars. We will assess this subject through the latest findings.
