Kings of the Sun

When Hunac Ceel (Leo Gordon) leads his army of warriors against the Mayan tribes of the Yucatan Peninsula, he kills their king, and the king's son, Balam (George Chakiris), flees. He takes his people in ships across the gulf, hoping to settle peaceably in a new world. But a native tribe, led by Black Eagle (Yul Brynner), is hostile, and takes Balam prisoner. Gradually, Balam and Black Eagle forge an understanding, and when Hunac Ceel show up, bent on destroying the Mayans, the two join forces.
