Kulubá is an ancient Maya civilization city and archeological site in Mexico. It is located in Tizimín Municipality, northeast Yucatan, Mexico. The site contains a palace, an altar, ruins of two residences, and a round structure believed to be an oven. The palace measures 6 metres (20 ft) tall, 55 metres (180 ft) long and 15 metres (49 ft) wide, and is believed to have been inhabited between 600-1050 CE.

A 1,000-year old Maya palace was discovered in Kulubá in 1939, by American archeologist Wyllys Andrews.
