The Preclassic political state in the Mirador Basin also used the title Kan. There is the idea that, after the collapse of the Mirador state, its refugees migrated north towards Calakmul, where they founded a new Kan polity. However, <a href="/wiki/Epigraphy" title="Epigraphy">epigraphical</a> studies of the monuments at Calakmul show that prior to the 7th century AD the emblem glyph of Calakmul had nothing to do with a snake, but with a bat. It seems that a different polity ruled there. The Kan emblem glyph, before being associated with Calakmul, is found (once) at Dzibanché, a site more towards the east. Perhaps during the late 6th/early 7th century, the polity at Dzibanché moved to Calakmul in order to establish a more strategically placed capital. After Calakmul's power dwindled in the 8th century, after the rule of Yuknoom Took K'awiil, it appears that the bat emblem glyph made its resurgence. Still, many uncertainties remain and new epigraphical studies have to be done to fill the gaps.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span

The fact that Copán, a much more powerful city than Quiriguá, failed to retaliate against its former vassal implies that it feared the military intervention of Calakmul. Calakmul itself was far enough away from Quiriguá that K'ak' Tiliw Chan Yopaat was not afraid of falling directly under its power as a full vassal state, even though it is likely that Calakmul sent warriors to help in the defeat of Copán. The alliance instead seems to have been one of mutual advantage: Calakmul managed to weaken a powerful ally of Tikal while Quiriguá gained its independence.<sup id="cite_ref-65" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-65"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>65<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Collapse">Collapse</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Calakmul&amp;action=edit&amp;section=17" title="Edit section: Collapse"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Five large stelae were raised in 741, although the name of the king responsible is illegible on all of them and he has been labelled as Ruler Y.<sup id="cite_ref-MartinGrube00p114_57-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MartinGrube00p114-57"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>57<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Calakmul's presence in the wider Maya area continued to wane, with two of the city's major allies suffering defeats at the hands of Tikal.<sup id="cite_ref-MartinGrube00p114_57-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MartinGrube00p114-57"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>57<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> El Peru was defeated in 743 and Naranjo a year later and this resulted in the final collapse of Calakmul's once powerful alliance network, while Tikal underwent a resurgence in its power.<sup id="cite_ref-MartinGrube00p114_57-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MartinGrube00p114-57"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>57<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 751 Ruler Z erected a stela that was never finished, paired with another with the portrait of a queen.<sup id="cite_ref-MartinGrube00p115_66-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MartinGrube00p115-66"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>66<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> A hieroglyphic stairway mentions someone called B'olon K'awiil at about the same time.<sup id="cite_ref-MartinGrube00p115_66-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MartinGrube00p115-66"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>66<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> B'olon K'awiil was king by 771 when he raised two stelae and he was mentioned at Toniná in 789.<sup id="cite_ref-MartinGrube00p115_66-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MartinGrube00p115-66"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>66<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Sites to the north of Calakmul showed a reduction in its influence at this time, with new architectural styles influenced by sites further north in the <a href="/wiki/Yucat%C3%A1n_Peninsula" title="Yucatán Peninsula">Yucatán Peninsula</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-MartinGrube00p115_66-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MartinGrube00p115-66"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>66<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>A monument was raised in 790 although the name of the ruler responsible is not preserved.
