Tikal Temple II

[2] Temple II was built by the king Jasaw Chan Kʼawiil I in honour of his wife, Lady Lahan Unen Moʼ.

[4] Lady Lahan Unen Moʼ, whose name means "Twelve Macaw Tails", was also important for being the mother of Jasaw Chan Kʼawill I's heir.

[5] In fact her son Yikʼin Chan Kʼawiil oversaw the completion of Temple II when he became king.

[14] Excavations inside Temple II failed to discover Lady Kalajuun Une' Mo's tomb.

[15] Ancient graffiti within the temple shrine depicts a captive upon a platform and bound between two poles being sacrificed with an arrow or a spear.

[19] Evidence of ritual use in the Postclassic Period was found within the temple shrine, including burials and offerings.

[26] this block may have served as an observation platform allowing the officiating priests to see the crowd in the plaza below and in turn be seen by the people there.

[33] At the base of the main access stairway stands Stela P-83, which was plain, without sculpted decoration or hieroglyphic texts.
