Tulum is located on the Caribbean Sea coast in the state of Quintana Roo and is a Pre-Columbian walled city of the Maya civilization.
Another modern town having the same name is located nearby called Tulum Pueblo.
The Maya site was previously known as Zama or the City of Dawn. An inscription which dates back to 564 was found at this site and remained occupied through the years of Spanish conquest of Yucatan though it was left as it is in the 16th century.
