Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story:Researchers in Belize discovered what may be the tomb of Caracol’s first dynastic leader, Te K’ab Chaak. Previous excavations at Caracol revealed two more burial sites, both dating back to a similar timeframe as Te K’ab Chaak. Te K’ab Chaak was buried at the base of the royal family tomb. In 2010, researchers discovered a cremation containing the remains of three individuals, knives, atlatl (spear-thrower) spear points, and obsidian blades from Pachuca, Mexico. Prior to the recent discoveries, experts had believed Teotihuacán came to be long after Te K’ab Chaak and the other individuals would’ve been buried.
