A set of four buildings surrounding a large
trapezoidal courtyard was named the Nunnery by
the Spanish because of the large number of small
"cells" in the buildings. The individual
buildings are constructed on platforms that rise
above the level of the courtyard. The buildings
were constructed at different times. Two smaller
structures, The Temple of Venus and one know
simply as Building Y, are at courtyard level, on
the east and west sides of the stairs leading to
the North Building

KABÁH
Se crede ca numele orasului însemna stapân cu
mâna grea si puternica, nume legat si de statuia
gasita la intrarea în zona arheologica, un
personaj care nu are trasaturi mayase si care
tine un sarpe în mâna Desi un oras mic se stie ca
a fost foarte important, fiind legat prin sac-bé
(calea sacra) cu o lungime de mai bine de 20 km,
de marele centru maya Uxmal precum si de alte
situri cu o importanta mai mica Kabah is south
of Uxmal, connected to that site by a 20
kilometres long raised causeway 5 metres (16
feet) wide with monumental arches at each end.
Kabah is the second largest ruin of
the Puuc region after Uxmal.  Ruins extend for a
considerable distance on both sides of the
highway many of the more distant structures are
little visited. The area was inhabited from the
mid 3rd century BCE. Most of the architecture now
visible was built between the 7th century and
11th centuries CE
