Tulum Mayan Ruins at Quintana Roo

Tulum, like Chichen Itza, was a city dedicated to the planet Venus, seen as a dual deity with the name of Kukulkan, and her worship was first introduced to Chichen Itza, coming from the Central Highlands where it started the religion of the God only with the name of Quetzalcoatl. Kukulkan was linked to trade and cocoa and for that reason was frequented by merchants and maintained the solidarity of the commercial domain. Tulum, being located on the coastal plain at a height he could contemplate the natural horizon in all directions, could be a point of astronomical observations.
