The stepped pyramids, temples, columned arcades, and other stone structures of Chichén Itzá were sacred to the Maya and a sophisticated urban centre of their empire from 750 to 1200 AD. Viewed as a whole, the incredible complex reveals much about the Maya and Toltec vision of the universe—which was intimately tied to what was visible in the night skies of the Yucatán Peninsula.
The most distinguishable structure is the Temple of Kukulkan, also known as El Castillo. This step pyramid shows the accuracy and importance of astronomy to the Maya – This influence came primarily from the Toltecs who invaded around 1000 AD and who merged their two cultural traditions.
This lesson gives your students the chance to build their own Temple Of Kukulkan and test the shadow produced to see how successful the Maya People were at producing an accurate calendar.
