History
There are texts at Pomona referring to dates as early as 297 CE, but little more is known from this time period.[1]
In 659 CE, Palenque captured six lords in battle. One was said to be from Pipa', a location associated with the site of Pomona. Another Pipa' lord was said to have died in 663.[2]
A king of Pomona rose to the throne under the supervision of K'inich Kan Bahlam III of Palenque in 751 CE.[3]
In March 792 CE, Piedras Negras attacked Pomona and took prisoners. It attacked and took prisoners again two years later. The defeated king at Pomona was named 'Kuch' Bahlam.[4]
