The Great Pyramid of Uxmal, in the southern sector of the Puuc-Maya city built between approximately 700 CE and 1000 CE. Original base 80 metres per side; original height 32 metres on nine terraces — making it the second-tallest structure at Uxmal after the Pyramid of the Magician. Only the northern face has been substantially restored; the other three sides remain partially collapsed into rubble mounds. The summit temple preserves carved Chaac (rain god) masks at its corners and a relief panel depicting a parrot — the same parrot iconography appears in the smaller adjacent Dovecote complex, suggesting a deliberate iconographic linkage between the two structures whose meaning remains undeciphered. The pyramid's south side faces directly into the setting sun on the winter solstice.
A pyramid restored on one side and left to rubble on the other three, with a parrot motif at its summit that reappears in a building shaped like a dovecote next door, in a city whose central deity was the rain god.
