El Grupo del PalomarEl nombre palomar se aplicó por los calados de la crestería, que semeja un palomar. El conjunto está formado por un patio rectangular rodeado de edificios de tipo palacio, de los cuales sólo se conserva un sector del edificio norte. En él se puede observar una crestería que consta de nueve unidades triangulares escalonadas y caladas que se apoyan en una fila de pilares, que estaba recubierta con relieves de estuco pintado y figuras de personajes que descansan en pedestales. V. Segovia investigó la función astronómica de este edificio, que data de 900-1000 d.C.Maya-Yucateco:U Múuch'il le Tsuutyuo'U k'aaba'il le palomaro' jts'a'ab ti' tyo'olal le joolo'ob yaan tu ka'anlilo' jach chiika'an ti' u kúuchil tu'ux ku kajtal tsuutsuyo'ob.

At the center of the cluster there is a Patio which was surrounded by palace-like buildings, of the which only a part of the North building remains. On it one can observe a cresting made up of nine stepped triangular units with fretwork, resting upon a row of pillars which used to be covered with painted stucco bas-reliefs representing human figures reclining on pedestals. V. Segovia investigated the astronomical functions of this building which dates between 900-1000 A.D.
