[[Image:Cenote-Zaci.jpg|thumb|150px|Cenote Zaci in Valladolid, Yucatan, Mexico]]A '''cenote''' (from [[Maya]]n ''dzonot'') is a collapsed underground [[limestone]] [[cavern]] that contains [[water]]. They are found throughout the northern part of the [[Yucatán]] peninsula and are part of the underground [[river]] system. Owing to the lack of any surface rivers in this area and the irregular rainfall, they were particularly important as a water source for the ancient Maya and played an important part in their religious ceremonies.
