sinkholes form when there is moving water under the surface. It wears and carries away the limestone or whatever is there, leaving a big pocket just waiting to collapse in on itself.

Good question! And what was under it, or not under it, to cause it to sink?

What other areas of the Guatemala have "nothing under them" and could sink in the future?
