Archaeologists say that Coba was the largest of all ancient Mayan cities. Within this site there are thought to be over 6,500 structures spread out over 50 square kilometres. During its heyday, around 750 AD, as many as 50,000 Maya may have inhabited the ancestral city of Coba.
Rediscovered in 1891 by archaeologist Teobert Maler after hearing rumours of a fabled lost city, Coba was not excavated until 1973. Excavation is still under way, and visitors may see 20 ruins that have not been excavated for every one that has been reconstructed. Pathways have been cleared but most of the tropical jungle remains intact. Visitors will see the restored sections of Coba and at the same appreciate the shady jungle paths and vine-covered pyramids yet to be excavated. This is a not to miss expierence.
