A Maya city through its landmarks

Chichen Itza provides the framework for exploring Maya history and culture in this nonfiction account. The book traces the city’s beginnings and the decline of the society that built it, while presenting Chichen Itza as a center of religious, political, scientific, and artistic life. Its landmarks—including El Castillo, the Temple of the Warriors, and the large ball court—connect architecture with the games and rituals held there. The focus on one city gives the subject a concrete setting for learning about the wider Maya world.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For readers ages 9–12 interested in Maya history and culture.
  • For young nonfiction readers curious about ancient cities, architecture, and archaeological landmarks.

The book also provides details about the culture of the Maya of Chichen Itza and the stunning architecture they built like the El Castillo pyramid, the Temple of the Warriors, and the massive ball court that was used for games and rituals.
