Kulubá is an ancient Maya civilization city and archeological site in Mexico [1]. It is located in Tizimín Municipality, northeast Yucatan [1]. The site contains a palace, an altar, ruins of two residences, and a round structure believed to be an oven [1]. The palace measures 6 metres tall, 55 metres long and 15 metres wide, and is believed to have been inhabited between 600-1050 CE [1]. A 1,000-year old Maya palace was discovered in Kulubá in 1939, by American archeologist Wyllys Andrews [1]. Kulubá consists of three main architectural structures [1]. They are believed to be residential sets of important lineages [1]. The site is about 6 kilometres in diameter and some 300 smaller structures had been discovered by 2009 [1].
