One of these caves is the Che Chem Ha Cave.

The Che Chem Ha cave is located about 16 miles from San Ignacio and near the Vaca Falls and it is necessary to climb a hill for more than half an hour to reach its entrance. It was discovered by a local farmer and is truly unique for its important collection of artifacts and Mayan art. It is special for amateur archaeologists and from the entrance we see decorations of this civilization and a good number of vessels leaning against the walls.
