| Page Views: 246 Last Visit to Ruinas Chichén-Itzá: November, 2001 | THE BALL COURTS by Joan58 - last update: Jan 18, 2003 |
This is just one of the eight Ball Courts of Chichén Itzà. It's the widest of all Mexico. Here the players had to pass the ball though a stone ring on the wall without to make use of hands and feet. The losing team (or the winning one? The archaeologists have different theories) was sacrified. |
