Honduras(500–1000 AD) Las Sepulturas was an elite Maya residential compound located 1 km north of Copán's Main Group, connected to the Grand Plaza by a raised stone causeway [1]. The exclusive compound contained luxurious living quarters with intricate carved reliefs and a main structure featuring life-sized figures wearing elaborate feathered headdresses [1]. The site derives its name "The Tombs" from local farmers who discovered numerous burial chambers in the area [1].
