Maya Town Hunacti In Northern Yucatán Stood Defiantly In Early Colonial Era

A team of researchers has uncovered the history of Hunacti, a 16th-century mission town featuring stone streets and a Spanish-style church. However, behind its appearance lies another story of this small town. It’s a story of Hunacti’s residents’ steady commitment to preserving Maya religious traditions and coping with the persistent persecution by Spanish colonial authorities.
The town, located on the Yucatán Peninsula, was initially established in 1557, and abandoned just 15 years later in 1572. This brief period of inhabitation prompts us to wonder and invites to further exploration into the reasons behind its desertion.
A team of researchers, headed by UAlbany anthropologist Marilyn A. Masson, collaborated with experts from Mexico’s Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia, Morehead State University, and the University of South Wales to conduct an excavation. Their work focused on uncovering three elite residences, the central plaza, and the church.
