About the time in Palenque
Palenque follows the civil time used across its region of Ecuador; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Palenque sits at latitude -1.33, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 05m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Palenque day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 14:00–22:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
