Museo Regional del Sureste de Petén

Museo Regional del Sureste de Petén, Archaeological museum in Dolores, Guatemala.

The Museo Regional del Sureste de Petén is a museum in Dolores that brings together pottery and stone sculptures from 22 archaeological sites in the region. The collection spans from early settlement periods to the arrival of Spanish conquistadors, showing how people in this area lived across centuries.

The museum was proposed in 1998 by the Dirección General de Caminos to offset damage to cultural heritage from a planned San Luis–Flores highway. The land, once the first seat of the municipal council, was donated that year; construction ran from December 1999 to November 2000 and the building was handed to the Ministry of Culture in 2001. Spanish cooperation funding in 2000 paid Tikal archaeologists for two years of restoration, and the museum opened on 17 March 2005.

The collection displays Maya ceramics and stone objects showing daily rituals and mythological scenes. You can see how ancient people expressed their gods and cosmic ideas through craftsmanship.

The museum lies 82 km from Flores, the departmental capital, among the Maya Mountains. It opens daily from 8am to 5pm. The building holds exhibition halls, a warehouse, a guardroom, sanitary services and a community hall.

The vase from Sacul (PSPA-708) was a funerary offering in Burial 193, buried before Structure 1 of Group 26. Its dedicatory rim text names it as the drinking vessel of a lord of Naranjo, and it depicts the tonsured maize god holding a rabbit, seated on a throne above three jars of pulque.
