Български: Тулум е град в Доколумбова Америка от цивилизацията на маите, служил за пристанище. Руините му се намират върху високи скали на източния бряг на полуостров Юкатан (днес в Мексико). Тулум е един от последните градове, обитавани от маите. Той достига разцвета си между 13 и 15 век и оцелява в продължение на 70 години след като испанците започват да завладяват Америка.
