Caption: Additional nearby Structure 12 marker
Additional Description: This nearby marker is further to the west past Structure 12 from the Adjoining Rooms marker. It reads:

Estructura 12
Es una plataforma cuadrangular on acceso por sus cuatro lados; soporta un monolito que pudo haber estado decorado con estuco y haber funcionado como una estela más del sitio (actualmente se reconocen 20 monolitos lisos en Dzibilchaltún). Cuando la gran plataforma aún no se ampliaba hacia el poniente, el “sacbé” 1 convergia hacia este monumento.

Maya-Yucateco:
Pak’il 12.
Jump’éel ka’anal táankab kanti’its yéetel u yokolil tu kantséel; ku kuchik jump’éel tuunich mii yaan ka’ach ts’iibo’ob yéetel luuk’ meyajta’an tu táan. Ka’ach ma’kóochkinta’ak chik’ine’, le yáax sak bejo’ ku k’uchul tak te’ pak’a’.

English:
Structure 12
It is a quadrangular platform with accesses on all four sides. Upon it is a monolith which could have been decorated with stucco and functioned as yet another stele of the site (Today there are 20 smooth monoliths in Dzibilchaltún). Before the Main Platform was enlarged towards the West, “Sacbeoob 1” converged towards this monument.
