Río Bec

Río Bec is a pre-Columbian Maya archaeological site located in what is now southern portion of the Mexican state of Campeche.

The French explorer Maurice de Perigny was the first European to visit and report on the Río Bec.

The site is now being excavated and restored by a group of French archaeologists from the CNRS headed by Dominique Michelet.

They have located several architectural groups and their surveys and maps of several square kilometers give us a better understanding of the ancient settlement.
