It was named after the capital city Chakan Putum. The city had approximately 8000 houses. It was a major port. ==Organization== After the war between the Tutul Xiu and Cocom, the Yucatan Peninsula, broke up into approximately 16 ''kuchkabalob''. in the present day state of Campeche there was Ah Canul , Can Pech , and Chakán Putum. Conflicts between Kuchkabal were common, especially between Tutul Xiu and Cocom. Normally each Kuchkabal had a capital where the ruler and supreme priest lived. The ruler was called a Halach Uinik . Each Kuckabal was divided into several municipalities called "Batalib" which in turn were governed by officials called " Batab "who were usually relatives of the Halach Uinik. Each ''Batab'', was the military leader of its population. On the religious side, after Halach Uinik, was the Ah Kin May, and the regular priests Ah Kin(meaning coming from the Sun). Also there was a sacrificial priest called "Ah Nacom". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chakán Putum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
