Talk:Palenque

message: Is it spelled B'akaal or B'aakal?  Because the es.wiki has it one way and the en.wiki has it the other, or so it seems to me.
:It's B'aakal with variants B'akal and Bacal.  Eluchil404 06:26, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd be highly suprised to find any source consistently spelling the name as "pelenque". That's a clear mispelling/typo, "palenque" is how it should be.--cjllw ʘ TALK 04:31, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Thanks to anon 65.78.17.194 for the work on expanding the article, I presume from translation from es. However it has a number of provisonal wordings and problems like "the modern-day Mexican provinces (or are they states?)" in the text. I have therefore moved this version to Palenque/Temp for the time being, and reverted the main article to the last version by CJLL Wright. Let's clean up the Temp version then incorporate the additions into the main article. -- Infrogmation 13:29, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I was thinking that it may be important to note in the section entitled Architecture, that the builder of the palace was Pacal II "The Great". Do any other wikipedia users feel the same? If so, please write a reply below this message. If you do not wish the builder's name in the article, or think it is unecessary, please state your thoughts below as well. Thanks!

replies: text: It would be useful to expand upon the known building history of the Palace and other notable structures. However, it would be incorrect to say that Pakal built the Palace- while ambitious modifications and additions to it were made and dedicated during his reign, the foundational-level structure and some of its core rooms date back several hundred years before this, to at least the Early Classic. His sucessors also made extensions to the overall Palace complex.--cjllw ʘ TALK 23:27, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I just reverted an altitude change which I'm almost certain is wrong. It wasn't presented wright any way. can anyone confirm the 150 meter altitude? Not that I think it is very important. Good day Zacherystaylor (talk) 16:46, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

message: The capstone shows the maize deity seated inside a well - not an underworld maw! Therefore, the picture is out of place here. I have copied it into the Maya maize deity article.77.162.130.139 (talk) 13:46, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

message: In the ruler list, there's a very strange use of titles and roman numerals. from my perspective, a roman numeral should only be used for subsequent rulers with the exact same name, including the title K'inich. Proposed changes:
Kan B'alam I     -->   Kan B'alam
K'inich Kan B'alam II --> K'inich Kan B'alam I, or simply K'inich Kan B'alam
K'inich Kan B'alam ?  --> K'inich Kan Balam II
K'an Joy Chitam I --> K'an Joy Chitam
K'inich K'an Joy Chitam II --> K'inich K'an Joy Chitam
K'inich Akhal Mo' Nahb III --> K'inich Akhal Mo' Nahb
"Ch'a Ruler I" --> "Ch'a" or "Casper" I
"Casper" --> "Ch'a" or "Casper" II  — Preceding unsigned comment added by True (talk • contribs) 00:59, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
