501 - 30th - The court room
Originally clicked and uploaded by - Pratosh Dwivedi - 30th Apr'09 These pillars once held a big roof and hosted a court to decide the fate of all the captives held during a war. Such court rooms were an integral part of all Mayan constructions and can be seen in almost all the Mayan sites across Latin America. Made of circular carved stones, joined together with stone and melted lime the pillars were arranged in perfect symmetry.Standing in the middle of the courtyard once could feel and strange sense of energy around oneself. Whether it is the sheer history associated with the place or millions of deaths it would have witnessed over hundreds of years, the effect doesn't fade away soon.Click here to see the full sized image
