High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Motul de San José is an ancient Maya site located just north of Lake Petén Itzá in the Petén Basin region of the southern Maya lowlands. It is located a few kilometres from the modern village of San José, in Guatemala's northern department of Petén. It is a medium sized civic-ceremonial centre and was an important political and economic centre during the Late Classic period (AD 650 950). The site was first settled between 600 and 300 BC, in the latter portion of the Middle Preclassic period, when it was probably a fairly small site. The city then had a long and continuous occupational history until the Early Postclassic, up to around AD 1250, with peaks in the Late Preclassic and Late Classic periods. Motul de San José has been identified as the source of Ik-style polychrome ceramics bearing painted scenes of the Late Classic Maya aristocracy involved in a variety of courtly activities. The city was the capital of a polity that includedvarious satellite sites of varying importance, including a port on the shore of Lake Petén Itzá.
