Description (summary) 2009-09-13 lC Revetment wall built along the temple terrace, probably as a protection against the erosion and for aesthetic reasons. In fact it doesn't have any real structural function (see absence of foundation, limited width). It is preserved for about three meters, very likely its original height. It runes east to west for about one hundred meters in the southern side of the terrace fronting the big plaza. To the west, in J5 it makes a sharp round turn to the north, forming the west end of the terrace. It remained visible and used for more than one millennium, without any big structural change.
