thumb|"El Palacio" of Aké thumb|right|Ruins of Aké Ake (or Aké in Spanish orthography) is an archaeological site of the pre-Columbian Maya civilization. It is located in the municipality of Tixkokob, in the Mexican state of Yucatán; 40 km (25 mi) east of Mérida, Yucatán.

The name Ake is a toponym that means "place of reeds" in Yucatec Maya. One notable feature of the site is its system of pre-Columbian ''sacbeo'ob'' or roads that facilitate access with other settlements in the region.
