It is located in a westerly direction overlooking the Plaza Mayor. This Mayan construction has a height of about 70 meters from the ground to its cresting. Also, it is the largest temple in Tikal not only for its height but also for its volume which is approximately 191 cubic meters. It is therefore considered the largest in America. It is believed that this compound was built during the reign of Yik’in Chan Ka’wil, son of Hasaw Cha’an Kawil. An important part of this construction was embodied in the lintels. This is because they recorded the wars and exploits of this ruler.

Mundo Perdido has 37 structures spread over an area of 60,000 square meters. It is known to be the largest ceremonial complex in Tikal and dates back to around the preclassical period. The constructive history of the Astronomical Commemoration Complex was in the Late Eb phase between 700-600 BC. Some records indicate that this square was organized as an astronomical complex. Which in turn is formed by a pyramid aligned with a platform located in an easterly direction. Part of this building consisted of these temples being used for stargazing. This method was used by the Maya to keep track of the passage of time, according to the astronomical methods they used.
