Located in today’s southern Mexico, Palenque was a Maya city that flourished during the 7th century. Palenque declined during the 8th century, entirely absorbed by the thick jungle and forgotten by time. Interest in the site arose again during the 19th century, and later the city was excavated and restored and is now a famous archaeological site visited by many tourists every year
