It was founded around two large cenotes, or natural wells. The Classic style is massive, with heavy, decorative sculpture and cramped interiors. The later buildings have plainer, more austere lines, with the sculpture based on the Mexican feathered-serpent motif and columns.
Toltec influence is strong.
Humans were also sacrificed. Dredgings of the well in modern times have yielded a valuable collection of artifacts. Listing from Electric Library , a pay service. Copyright 2001 Infonautics Corporation . All rights reserved.
