| View of the facade of the Feathered Serpent Pyramid, assembled as a
mosaic of large and small sculptures. The head of the Feathered Serpent
juts out from the tablero. Its body wraps around the building and
carries a headdress thought to represent a primordial crocodile, or the
so-called War Serpent. The shells surrounding the Feathered Serpent
emphasize that the building represents a watery location, like a
mountain rising from the sea. Photograph by Jorge Pérez de Lara Elías, ©

| View of an area immediately east of the Feathered Serpent Pyramid,
looking south. The fragments seen here tumbled down from the eastern
facade of the building; some may have been deliberately thrown down in
an attempt to desacralize the pyramid. Photograph by Jorge Pérez de
