Water caverns of Yueatan.

Since fucatan. where the Mayas
built their strange cities, is OF coral
limestone formation, it follows that it
would have been a dese TT but for its
subterranean rivers and the eenotes,
or water caverns. which give access
to them.
The Mayas noted the courses of the
underground streams and built their
towns round the cenotes. Many ce-
notes are now found surrounded by
ruins and give indication of the meth
DDS employed by the Mayas to reach
their cool waters. In Uxmal a cenote
about 40 feet deep is inhabited by a
peculiar species of fish. At Bolanchen
there is a cenote having live open
