A Maya cave site located on the western side of the Macal River in the upper Belize Valley. Holley Moyes (2006) studied/excavated the site in the early 2000s as part of her doctoral research. The cave has evidence of use for offerings and burials spanning 2000 years. Maize cobs were recovered from vessels at the site and provide a glimpse into the pattern of cave offerings made during the Late Classic Period.
