The Classic period

Cities such as Cobá, Kohunlich, Dzibanché and Muyil flourished during the Classic period (A.D. 250 - 1000). Cobá and Muyil, and Tulum, Xel-Há and Tankah on the coast, became important trading centers with links to cities in the Yucatán and beyond. In the South, Kohunlich and Dzibanché had trade and political relations with city states in Campeche (Calakmul) and Guatemala (Tikal). Links were so strong that they transformed the area's architectural style which is clearly influenced by that of the Petén.
