commercial, religious and military centre, which lasted until about the 13th Century, Chichen Itza supported
over 35,000 people. The ruins were built with such knowledge of cosmology and mathematics that astound
scholars from around the world. Deadly games were held in the magnificent Ball Court to choose sacrificial
victims for the altar-throne that was in the form of a red jaguar encrusted with jade, and their remains
displayed in the gruesome Temple of Skulls. This ball court is the largest to be found in Mesoamerica. After
