    During the journey to the archaeological zone we make two small stops in a couple of viewpoints from where the best views of huatulco are mastered. The Copalita archaeological zone is located in the middle of the jungle where we combine natural attractions with archaeology because the pyramid foundations are also located in that zone, such as the Main Temple, the Snake Building and the game e Pelota. We also climb to the viewpoint from where the Bocana is dominated, which is the part where the Copalita River meets the ocean and the cliff where some rituals, ceremonies and probably human sacrifices were also possibly performed. This is where the majority of the population lived, who were engaged in fishing and some in agriculture and hunting.
