That of the Ancient Mexicans Surely
the Most Infamous Recorded

they resembled in form the temples OF

spicuously to the city the long pro-
cession of priests and victims wind

stone images and affairs, and before
that of the war god the green stone

shrines reeking with the stencil OF
slaughter. the eternal fires were kept
burning, and on the platform stood the
huge drum, covered with snakes skins,
whose fearful sound was heard for
miles. From the terrace could be seen
seventy or more temples within the
Enclosure, with their images and blaz-
ing fires, and the tzompantli or skull

tens of thousands were skewered on
cross-sticks or built into towers.
