This chapter offers a diachronic sociopolitical and economic model of Calakmul, Campeche, Mexico. Calakmul is a regional capital situated in the geographical heartland of the lowland Maya area. The chapter suggests that perspective is from its temples, central plaza, and palaces situated on the artificially leveled dome on which the city center is built. It includes exposition of a royal court complex. The chapter employs the sixteenth-century ruling authority and settlement pattern of Chicxulub, Yucatan and the nineteenth-century Noh Cah Santa Cruz Maya, which also exercised a triadic form of government up to 1901.
