Its name means “Rio del Robles”, and is located in the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve. The first building of the area was discovered between the years 1906 and 1907 by the French explorer Maurice de Périgny. This late and disembedded settlement gives name to the Rio Bec Region.

The site is composed of numerous groups with monumental buildings and it is believed that, due to its architecture and decoration, this place was controlled by the noble houses.

Rio Bec and a large part of the nearby settlements deviate from what may be considered the site model of the Maya Classic.
