"Naranjo" in Spanish means "Orange Tree", which in turn derives from the Mayan name Wak Kab'nal.
In 546 AD Naranjo came under the control of Calakmul whose ruler Tuun Kab Hix appointed Aj Wosal. This was a deliberate move by Calakmul to take allies away from Tikal. In 626 two attacks were made on Naranjo by Caracol. Naranjo was then retaken by Calakmul in 631. Naranjo defeated Caracol in 680 AD in a "star war" sending Caracol into a hiatus period.The location was considered a sacred place that replicated the Mayan universe. So cool!
