AKE

'Ake' is an archaeological site of the pre-Columbian Maya civilization, located in the state of Yucatán, Mexico.
Ake is some 30 km (19 mi) east of Mérida, Yucatán. The ruins date from the Post-Classic era. They were first described in print by John Lloyd Stephens and Frederick Catherwood in the early 1840s.
The "palace" with rows of stone columns atop a step-pyramid platform, is the site's most impressive feature. While open to visitors, Ake is little visited compared to Yucatán's more spectaular ruins.
The remains of an ancient Maya raised pedestrian causeway, or "sacbe", runs from Ake to Izamal. It was apparently part of a road system running from the site of Ti'ho at modern Mérida to the Caribbean Sea.
