Sites of both veneration and sacrifice, the Mayan temple complexes made up the religious core of Mayan society in the 3rd through 10th centuries. Gargantuan, meticulously built constructions, these massive structures are iconic representations of the grandeur of a majestic, lost civilization whose power and influence still echo through society today.
The Mayan Temple was carved from natural untreated Lapis Lazuli.
