# Maya monarchs

Maya monarchs, also known as Maya kings and queens, were the centers of power for the Maya civilization. Each Maya city-state was controlled by a dynasty of kings. The position of king was usually inherited by the oldest son.

## Symbols of power

Maya kings felt the need to legitimize their claim to power. One of the ways to do this was to build a temple or pyramid. Tikal Temple I is a good example. This temple was built during the reign of Yikʼin Chan Kʼawiil. Another king named Kʼinich Janaabʼ Pakal would later carry out this same show of power when building the Temple of Inscriptions at Palenque. The Temple of Inscriptions still towers today amid the ruins of Palenque, as the supreme symbol of influence and power in Palenque.

## Succession

Maya kings cultivated godlike personas. When a ruler died and left no heir to the throne, the result was usually war and bloodshed. King Pacal's precursor, Pacal I, died upon the battlefield. However, instead of the kingdom erupting into chaos, the city of Palenque, a Maya capital city in southern Mexico, invited in a young prince from a different city-state. The prince was only twelve years old.

## Expansion

Pacal and his predecessors not only built elaborate temples and pyramids. They expanded their city-state into a thriving empire. Under Yikʼin Chan Kʼawiil, Tikal conquered Calakmul and the other cities around Tikal, forming what could be referred to as a super city-state. Pacal achieved in creating a major center for power and development.

## Responsibilities

A Maya king was expected to be an excellent military leader. He would often carry out raids against rival city-states. The Maya kings also offered their own blood to the gods. The rulers were also expected to have a good mind to solve problems that the city might be facing, including war and food crises.
Maya kings were expected to ensure the gods received the prayers, praise and attention they deserved and to reinforce their divine lineage. They did this by displaying public rituals such as processions through the streets of their cities. A more private ritual was that of blood sacrifice, which was done by Lords and their wives.

| Kʼahkʼ Ujol Kʼinich I (Smoking Skull I; Ruler I) | ? | c.470 | c.470 | ? Caracol | A lady of Xultun at least one child | | Appears on the 6th century genealogical text of Stela 16, but his place in the line of reigning lords is unknown. His reign has been estimated to be circa AD 470. He may have been the father of Yajaw Te’ K’inich I. |
| Yajaw Teʼ Kʼinich I | ? Caracol Probable son of Kʼahkʼ Ujol Kʼinich I and a lady of Xultun | 12 April 484 (9.2.9.0.16) | 514 | 514 Caracol | ? at least one child | Altar 4 (28 Jan 495) Altar 19 (7 Dec 504) Stela 13 (16 Oct 514) Altar 17 (16 Oct 514) | Stela 13 records his celebration of the 4th K’atun in AD 514. |

| Yajaw Teʼ Kʼinich II (Lord Water; Lord Muluc; Ruler III) | ? Caracol Son of Kʼan I and Lady Kʼal Kʼinich | 18 April 553 (9.5.19.1.2) | 599 | c.603 Caracol | Lady 1 at least one child Lady Batzʼ Ekʼ [of La Corona?] 582 at least one child | Stela 14 (20 Mar 554) Altar 5 (20 Mar 554) Stela 15 (5 Dec 573) Altar 6 (5 Dec 573) Stela 4 (17 Oct 583) Stela 1 (22 Aug 593) Altar 1 (22 Aug 593) | Named after his grandfather. His first monument, Stela 14, records the K’atun ending in AD 554 (9.6.0.0.0). As told on Altar 21, Yajaw Te’ K’inich II's accession takes place under the auspices of the Tikal Lord Wak Chan K’awiil. He erected Stela 1 and Altar 1 to mark his last K’atun ending of 9.8.0.0.0, and four years later he is referenced as ‘seeing’ the 9.8.10.0.0 ending. He is mentioned in the fragmentary text on Stela 23. In AD 562 – 9.6.8.4.2 he enacted the first recorded star war against Tikal and Lord Wak Chan K’awiil. Yajaw Te' K'inich II's two sons, Knot Ajaw and K’an II, rule after him. |
| Knot Ajaw (Ajaw Serpent; Flaming Ajaw; Ruler IV) | 28 November 575 (9.7.2.0.3) Caracol Son of Yajaw Teʼ Kʼinich II and Lady 1 | 24 June 599 (9.8.5.16.12) | 613 | 613 Caracol (aged 37/38) | Unmarried | Stela 6 (2 Jul 603) Stela 5 (10 May 613) Altars 11 and 15 (10 May 613) | Erected his monuments to the west of Structure A13. |
| Tutum Yohl K’inich II (K'an II; Lord Stormwater Moon; Antenna Top II; Ruler V) | 18 April 588 (9.7.14.10.8) Caracol Son of Yajaw Teʼ Kʼinich II and Lady Batzʼ Ekʼ | 6 March 618 (9.9.4.16.2) | 21 July 658 | 21 July 658 (9.11.5.15.9) Caracol (aged 70) | ? at least one child | Stela 22 (25 Jan 633) Stela 7 (26 Jan 633) Altar 21 (26 Jan 633) Altar 17 (12 Oct 652) Stela 3 (13 Oct 652) Hieroglyphic Stairway of Naranjo (possibly) Panel 1 of Naranjo (possibly) | The most successful Caracol ruler. Reigning for 40 years, he expanded the causeway system and saw an increase in the site's population. Born as Sak Witzil Baah (“White First Hill”, or “White Gopher Hill”) in AD 588, he took his grandfather's name at his accession. He was the half-brother of Knot Ajaw, and was thus always stressing his legitimacy by referencing his mother (who may be Batz’ Ek’). It is interesting that he never references the rule of his brother Knot Ajaw in any of his monuments, even those that describe his dynastic predecessors. He also seems to have developed diplomatic contacts with the Snake polity, with whom he coordinated the war with Naranjo, which began in 626, and ended with the defeat of Naranjo in 631. |
| Kʼahkʼ Ujol Kʼinich II (Smoking Skull II; Ruler VI) | ? Caracol Possible son of Kʼan II | 22 June 658 (9.11.5.14.0) | 2 March 680 | 2 March 680 (9.12.7.14.1) Caracol | ? | A monument at La Rejolla Two stucco texts at Caana (Structures B16-sub and B18) | Succeeded K’an II in 658, but as he has no surviving parentage statements, we cannot be certain that he is K’an II's son. One of the stucco texts shows that in 680, Caracol was the victim of a star war from Naranjo (also called Naranjo's war of Independence). Martin and Grube suggest that this action drove K’ahk’ Ujol K’inich from Caracol, at which time he may have fled to La Rejolla, 12 km to the northwest. The remainder of this text has not been excavated. This star war event seems to have launched Caracol's epigraphic hiatus, which continues for 96 years, until 798. |
| Ruler VII (Tz’ayaj K’ajk’?) | ? Caracol | c.700 | c.700 | ? Caracol | ? | Stela 21 (24 Jan 702) | Reigned during the epigraphic hiatus. One candidate for this ruler comes from Naj Tunich, some 46 km to the south. In one of the cave's chambers dated to 692 is a text referring to a Caracol elite named Tz’ayaj K’ajk’, who carries the emblem glyph, but not the k’inich ajaw prefix. |
| Tum Yohl Kʼinich (Tz’ayaj K’ajk’?; Ruler VIII) | ? Caracol | c.744 | c.793 | ? Caracol | ? at least one son | | He is as enigmatic as Ruler VII. He likewise appears in Naj Tunich, and also lacks the k’inich ajaw prefix, leaving his royal status in question. In this text (dated to 27 August 744), he performs a fire-bearing ritual under the supervision of a lord of Ixkun; an unnamed lord of Calakmul is also involved. All other appearances of his name occur in later retrospective texts like Altar 23, which lists him as a 3 K’atun lord, and the captor of two lords from Ucanal and Bital. |
| K’inich Joy K’awiil | ? Caracol Possible son of Tum Yohl Kʼinich | 10 December 799 (9.18.9.5.9) | ? | ? Caracol | ? | Altar 23 (17 Aug 800) B-Group Ballcourt | Began a revival of the Caracol polity with his accession. He commissioned the B-Group Ballcourt, the markers of which date back to the dynastic founder Te’ K’ab Chaak. Stela 11 shows Tum Yohl K’inich in an ambiguous relationship to Joy K’awiil, which may show that he is the latter's father, or as suggested by Altar 23 potentially a relative in a high-ranking military position. |
| K'inich Toob'il Yopaat (Ruler X or XI) | ? Caracol Possible son of Tum Yohl K'inich | c.810 | c.830 | ? Caracol | ? | Stelae 8 and 18 (26 Jun 810) Altar 22 (26 Jun 810) Stela 19 (4 May 820) Altars 12 and 13 (4 May 820) | His accession date is not certain, but he erected five (possibly six) monuments (Stelae 18, 19, Altars 12, 13), and seems to have repaired relations with Ucanal. This new relationship is depicted on Altars 12 and 13, as well as on stucco text from Structure B18. |
| Kʼan III | ? Caracol | c.835 | c.849 | ? Caracol | ? | Stela 17 (28 Nov 849) Altars 10 and 18 (28 Nov 849) | |
| Ruler XIII | ? Caracol | c.859 | c.859 | ? Caracol | ? | Stela 10 (7 Oct 859) | Last known lord of Caracol, and erected only one monument: Stela 10. Stela 10 is a carved all glyphic monument which may commemorate the half-K’atun 10.1.10.0.0 (AD 859). |
