Coba, Mexico: Temple features 13 altars

Coba Archaeologic Zone, Quintana Roo, Mexico
At the "Compound of the Paintings" the courtyard features 13 altars, suggesting that each of these altars is dedicated to one of the 13 'days' of the Mayan 260-day cycle.
I visited on Oct. 22, 1977, and shot these photos.
