Moral-Reforma, an important Mayan site in Tabasco, will increase its visitation circuit thanks to Promeza

#SecretaríaDeCultura.- The Ministry of Culture of the Government of Mexico, through the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH), has begun archaeological and conservation work at the Moral-Reforma site in Balancán, Tabasco, through the implementation of the Archaeological Zones Improvement Program (Promeza), which strengthens 21 of these spaces that will increase their affluence with the implementation of the Maya Train.

This important settlement, which maintained ties with Calakmul and Palenque during the second half of the 7th century, is part of the circuit of archeological sites considered in Section 1, which will run from Palenque, Chiapas, to Escarcega, Campeche, whose station near this tourist destination -where the pre-Hispanic settlement and the Cascadas de Reforma Ecological Reserve coincide- will be El Triunfo, which will connect Tabasco with Campeche.

The director of the INAH Tabasco Center, Carlos Arturo Giordano Sánchez Verín, detailed that, with an initial resource of 17 million pesos, foreseen in the Promeza budget, the consolidation of seven structures distributed in the nuclear zone of Moral-Reforma will be carried out, from a couple of mounds to two palace-like buildings of approximately 100 meters per side, architectural complexes composed by sunken patios, corridors and living quarters, comparable in complexity to El Palacio de Palenque, although they keep greater similarities with the Petén style.
