The Story Behind the Name "Casa Loltún"
Loltún means Flower Stone (Lol–Tún) in Mayan and is also the name of the largest and most significant cave system in Yucatán (Grutas de Lol-Tún).
One chamber features two limestone pillars, known as Lol and Tún. Casa Loltún is likewise built on two pillars – the main house and the apartment house.
The earliest known human settlement in Yucatán was found at Loltún. Archaeological evidence inside the cave confirms it was once inhabited.
The cave also holds 145 ancient paintings and petroglyphs, believed to be created by the Maya during the Late Preclassic Era (400 BC – 100 AD).
The Maya civilization spanned a vast region covering southeastern Mexico and parts of northern Central America.
They left behind a remarkable architectural legacy – including palaces, pyramids, temples, ballcourts, and observatories.
