There was a sudden outburst of inscribed monuments in the reign of Aj Wosal Chan K ' inich ( AD 546 – 615 ) who acceded to the throne as a vassal of another Maya ‘ superpower ’ – Kanal ( Calakmul and Dzibanche ) – about the time when it expanded its political influence at the expense of Mutal.

One of the most celebrated of Tikal's rulers, Jasaw Chan K ' awiil's reign came at the end of a 130-year long hiatus in Tikal's historical record, and his defeat of the rival Maya city of Calakmul in 695 is seen to represent a resurgence in the strength and influence of Tikal.

Tikal's influence weakened during the mid-sixth century ; losing control of Naranjo, located halfway between the two cities ( 42 km from each site ), to rival Calakmul.

During the reign of Yohl Ik ' nal, Palenque suffered an important defeat by Calakmul, one of the two great Maya powers of the Classic Period.

Throughout the Classic Period, Calakmul maintained an intense rivalry with the major city of Tikal to the south, and the political manoeuvrings of these two cities have been likened to a struggle between two Maya superpowers.

According to Lundell, who named the site, " In Maya, ' ca ' means ' two ', ' lak ' means ' adjacent ', and ' mul ' signifies any artificial mound or pyramid, so ' Calakmul ' is the ' City of the Two Adjacent Pyramids '.

The location of Calakmul at the edge of a bajo provided two additional advantages: the fertile soils along the edge of the swamp and access to abundant flint nodules.

Stela I at Quirigua states that in 736, two years before Uaxaclajuun Ub ’ aah Kawiil ’ s defeat and two years after the inscription declaring Quirigua ’ s indepence, K ’ ak ’ Tiliw Chan Yopaat hosted a delegation from the polity of Calakmul, including its ruler Wamaw K ’ awiil.

The Maya sites of Balamku, Calakmul, Chicanna and Xpuhil are nearby.

In the Maya region, numerous city states such as Tikal, Calakmul, Copán, Palenque, Uxmal, Cobá, and Caracol reached their zeniths.

The city was an important player in the Classic period political struggles of the southern Maya lowlands, and is known for defeating and subjugating Tikal ( while allied with Calakmul, located in Campeche, Mexico ).

The close location to the dominant Maya capitals Calakmul and Tikal contributed to the trading power of Waka '.

Calakmul ( also Kalakmul and other less frequent variants ) is a Maya archaeological site in the Mexican state of Campeche, deep in the jungles of the greater Petén Basin region.

Calakmul was one of the largest and most powerful ancient cities ever uncovered in the Maya lowlands.

Calakmul was a major Maya power within the northern Peten region of the Yucatan of southern Mexico.

The Emblem Glyph of Calakmul has a greater distribution than the Emblem Glyph of any other Maya city.

* Kaan ( Maya state ), a Pre-Columbian state of the Maya civilization with its capital at Calakmul

The languages spoken in Calakmul include Yucatec Maya, Ch ' ol, Chontal, Tzotzil, and others.

The text of Stela A proclaims that Copan ranked with three other kingdoms, Calakmul, Palenque, and Tikal as the four great polities of the Maya World.

" Sky Witness " was a ruler of the Maya city and major cultural center of Calakmul, also known as Kaan.

The main conflict during this period was between Tikal and Calakmul, who fought a series of wars over the course of more than half a millennium.

In the Late Classic period Edzná was part of the Calakmul polity.

The entire population of the Calakmul kingdom, including the city itself and the rural population in the area of the regional state, is calculated at 1. 75 million people in the Late Classic period.

Located south-south-east of Calakmul, and north of Tikal, it is believed to have had strategic importance to, and been vulnerable to military attacks by, both neighbours.

Both Tikal and Calakmul lie near the centre of the area.

The city was located southeast of its great Classic Period rival, Calakmul, and northwest of Calakmul's ally Caracol, now in Belize.

Coba must have maintained close contacts with the large city states of Guatemala and the south of Campeche like Tikal, Dzibanché or Calakmul.

It seems that one of such attacks resulted in a complete interruption of the royal line of Naranjo about A. D. 680, what led to a re-foundation of the dynasty by Calakmul that orchestrated a marriage between a daughter of the ruler B ' alaj Chan K ' awiil at Dos Pilas ( at the time a client state of Calakmul whose rulers were claimants to the throne of Tikal ) and an unidentified nobleman, possibly of local Naranjo origin.

However, as the power of Calakmul waned, rulers of Saal had to confront a resurgent Mutal and that confrontation ended in a complete defeat of Saal in AD 744.

The Nature Conservancy and its conservation partner, Pronatura Peninsula Yucatán, are working to halt deforestation on private lands in and around the 1. 8 million acre ( 7, 300 km² ) Calakmul Biosphere Reserve, along the Mexico-Guatemala border.

In November 2004, 370, 000 acres ( 1, 500 km² ) of threatened tropical forest in Calakmul were permanently protected under a historic land deal between the Mexican federal and state government, Pronatura Peninsula Yucatán, four local communities and the Conservancy.

During his reign his kingdom was invaded by people from Calakmul.

After the defeat, Palenque apparently maintained its political identity but Yohl Ik ' nal probably had to pay tribute to the king of Calakmul.

Waka ’, however, later betrayed Tikal and forged an alliance with Calakmul.

Deane and J. R. Thomson write this valid conclusion, “ The Book of Obadiah is occupied with one subject – the punishment of Edom for its cruel and unbrotherly love conduct towards Judah ...” One can link this idea of punishment to one of the major prophets “ Ezekiel ” who “... interprets the exile to Babylon and the destruction of Jerusalem as deserved punishments for the sins of those who themselves committed them .” Verses 3-7 in Obadiah explain to the reader the reason for the punishment theme, “ Confidence in one ’ s power, intelligence, allies, or the topographical features of one ’ s territory is often mentioned as an attribute of those who foolishly confront the Lord and are consequently punished .” Although destruction is vital to understanding Obadiah, it is of note to understand the destruction being a consequence of action.
