Although the monumental architecture of the site dates back to the fourth century BC. C., Tikal reached its peak during the Classic Period, between 200 and 900 AD. C. During this time, the city dominated much of the Mayan region, in the political, economic and military sphere; it maintained links with other regions, throughout Mesoamerica, even with the great metropolis of Teotihuacan, in the distant Valley of Mexico.
