MAYAN RUINS OF COZUMEL

San Gervasio is the largest and most famous Mayan Ruins site on Cozumel, dating back to 300-400 A.D when this urban center was dedicated to Ix Chel, the goddess of fertility, medicine, midwifery and weaving,.  Mayan women used to make a pilgrimage from the mainland to visit the temples and many statues of Ix Chel found here. 

The architectural style appears to be modeled after the capital of the Itzas, with the white stone roads connecting all the temples, similar to the roads found at Chichen Itza.  While this ruins site is small compared to the giant sites on the mainland, it presents an interesting history of the Mayan presence on the island of Cozumel.
