This name is derived from two Mayan words, LOL (flower) and
TUN (stone). Located in the hilly Puuc region, 66 miles from Merida, these
are the largest caves on the peninsula. They are also the ones that are the
most studied. Evidence has been found here of human contact going back 7,000
years. Mammoth bones have been found in the caves, along with fresco
paintings on the walls, "hands in negative", faces, animals, grecos and
decorative figures.
