[Aztlan] Termination Ceremony at Kabah

[michael ruggeri]

Listeros,

Lourdes Toscano Hernandez has been working at Kabah for INAH and has  
found evidence of a termination ceremony there in Rooms 13 and 14  
which consists of tearing apart door elements and evidence of burnt  
soil has also been found. This kind of evidence of termination  
rituals has also been found at other Puuc cities such as Uxmal and  
Sayil. Kabah came to an end in 1000 CE and had been occupied since  
300 BCE. The Maya elite may have carried these ceremonies out in  
preparation for abandonment.

INAH has the story here;
