説明 | Le temple aux mille colonnesLe temple des guerriers du jaguar possède des fresques qui relatent la conquête de la péninsule par les Toltèques. L'entrée du temple qui est construit sur une pyramide est délimitée par deux magnifiques piliers, posés sur deux énormes têtes de serpents et précédés par un chaac-mool : cet étrange personnage est sculpté dans la pierre dans une position à moitié couchée et reposant sur les coudes, de telle sorte qu'il soutient sur le ventre un plateau destiné à recevoir les offrandes faites au dieu (les cœurs des victimes sacrifiées). Tout près du temple des guerriers se dresse le temple des mille colonnes, chacune d'elles étant taillée en forme de serpent à plumes.Temple of the WarriorsThe Temple of the Warriors complex consists of a large stepped pyramid fronted and flanked by rows of carved columns depicting warriors. This complex is analogous to Temple B at the Toltec capital of Tula, and indicates some form of cultural contact between the two regions. The one at Chichen Itza, however, was constructed on a larger scale. At the top of the stairway on the pyramid’s summit (and leading towards the entrance of the pyramid’s temple) is a Chac Mool. This temple encases or entombs a former structure called The Temple of the Chac Mool. The archeological expedition and restoration of this building was done by the Carnegie Institute of Washington from 1925-1928. A key member of this restoration was Earl H. Morris who published the work from this expedition in two volumes entitled Temple of the Warriors.Group of a Thousand ColumnsAlong the south wall of the Temple of Warriors are a series of what are today exposed columns, although when the city was inhabited these would have supported an extensive roof system. The columns are in three distinct sections: an east group, that extends the lines of the front of the Temple of Warriors; a north group, which runs along the south wall of the Temple of Warriors and contains pillars with carvings of soldiers in bas-relief; and a northeast group, which was apparently formed a small temple at the southeast corner of the Temple of Warriors, which contains a rectangular decorated with carvings of people or gods, as well as animals and serpents. The northeast column temple also covers a small marvel of engineering, a channel that funnels all the rainwater from the complex some 40 metres (130 ft) away to a rejollada, a former cenote.source : WikiPedia |
