Description
A hundred metres or so north of El Castillo lies the so-called Tomb of Chac-mool (Tumba del Chac-mool). Here, more than 100 years ago, Le Plongeon found a stone figure which he christened Chac-mool. The structure is also known as the Venus Platform, having interesting reliefs featuring both Kukulkán's symbol and that of the Morning Star.
