Activities around Pacbitun Farm: Tikal National Park (Peten Departemt, Guatemala)[日本語訳下]

The ancient Maya city of Tikal is located deep in the heart of Guatemala’s El Petén rainforest. The ancient city site is one of the largest ancient Maya sites, and today exists as a 222 square mile protected national park that is sanctuary not only for archaeological monuments, but also for endangered wildlife such as ocelots, peccaries, monkeys, toucans, parrots, and the elusive jaguar among many more rare creatures. Tikal was once a great trade, religious, and political center that dominated the region at times during the Classic Period, ca. 200CE to 850CE.

Tikal contains thousands of archaeological sites of which only a small portion have been excavated. To date 3000 have been uncovered and some 10,000 remain to be explored. Central to the site is the Great Plaza bounded by the North Acropolis to the north, with the Central Acropolis to the south and Temple I and Temple II to the east and west. Temple IV was the second largest structure in the New World until the first skyscrapers were built in North America. In addition to its tall monumental temples and other works of architecture, Tikal is renowned for its carved inscriptions, stelae, and polychrome ceramics of exceptional artistic quality.

パクビトゥンファーム周辺：ティカル国立公園（ペテン県、グァテマラ）
古代マヤ都市ティカルはグアテマラのペテン熱帯雨林の中心部に位置しています。代表的な最大古代都市の一つであり、222平方マイルほどの広さを誇る、今では保護国立公園となっています。絶滅寸前の動物を含む野生動物等（オセロット、ペッカリー、サル、オオハシ、オウム、ジャガー）の生息地でもあります。ティカルはかつて古典機期間中（200AD~8500AD）に地域を支配した偉大な貿易、宗教、そして政治の中心地でした。

ティカルでは現在、小さな部分だけが発掘されており、まだ発掘されていない遺跡が数千と残っている状態です。現在まででは3000件の建造物が発掘され、まだその他に10,000健の建造物が熱帯雨林の土下で眠っている状態です。サイトの中心（大広場）から北に北のアクロポリス、南に中央アクロポリス、東と西の方向に寺院IとIIが位置します。背の高い寺院や建造物やその他の作品に加えて、ティカルはその優れた芸術性で有名です。
