HISTORY: King Pacal (Pacal the Great) was born in 603 A.D. He was king of the Maya city-state of Palenque and reigned for 67 years until his death at the age of 80. The name "Pacal" means "shield" in the Maya language. Pacal expanded Palenque's power in the western part of the Mayan states, and initiated a building program that produced some of the finest art and architecture of the Maya civilization. He ascended the throne at age 12 on 29 July, 615 A.D. After his death, Pacal the Great was worshiped as a God, and said to communicate with his descendants. His elaborate temple tomb had a stairway down to his crypt, and after this was sealed up it had a long "speaking tube" connected to the temple atop the stop-pyramid.
