Naranjo
Naranjo is an ancient city of the Maya civilization in the Petén Basin region of the central Maya lowlands, in the present-day department of Petén, Guatemala west of the border with Belize and it is the northernmost of the three sites that form the Cultural Triangle with Yaxha and Nakum.
The city lies along the Mopan and Holmul rivers. Naranjo was the capital of the most powerful Classic Maya kingdom of ''Saal''. The divine owner of the city, its patron, and the founder of the dynasty was a deity with a yet-undeciphered name, nicknamed "Black Square-Nosed Beastie" (possibly read as ''Ik' Miin'')
==Etymology==
"Naranjo" in Spanish language means "Orange Tree." The emblem glyph of the polity is rendered as Sa'aal, thought to mean "the place where maize gruel abounds." Another ancient Classic Maya language name associated with the city site is ''Maxam''. ''Wak Kab'nal'' or ''Wakabnal'' could be an alternative place name, but it is not specifically linked to the site but rather its lords.〔Tokovinine, Alexandre; and Vilma Fialko. 2007.
