The Bat Group

This Group was a living group in the last time of Palenques history. It consists by a large number of buildings and lay between the Otolum River and the Bat brooks. The buildings are constructed of low platforms and the interior is subdivisions in varios ways. They have one or two level connected with narrow stairs. Some of the rooms have tombs under the floor. In this area were also found things for the daily live. So it is clear, it must be a living space.

Group IV now J (Need a own link)

You can go a path next to the entrence to Group IV but may be it is not always possible. This Group has now the name Group J. Only few of the structures of this group are now partial consolidated. The really interesting feature of this group is a canal system. There are four separate canals. May be in this area were a lot of water springs and the Maya built this canals to get land for there buildings.
