Bakna is an ancient archaeological site of the Maya civilization located in the Puuc region of Campeche in Mexico, near the city of Hopelchén.

The ancient settlement of Bakna developed as a ceremonial center during the late Classic period and the early Postclassic as part of the Puuc region sites.

Inside the structures of the site has been identified the existence of carved stone monuments and stelae with representations of deities and mythological figures.

The Column of Bakna is a large carved Stone monument dated in 800–1000 AD showing the image of a major ancient Maya deity identified as the God L associated with trade and the rule of the underworld.
