Temple of the Painted Lintel (Coba)

January 10, 2017 Luke Cabading

Very small, one-room temple-type building which stands on stepped pyramid with four main bodies. Broad stairway, divided near top, on northwest side of pyramid with additional vaulted building near foot of stairway. Main facade of temple, which has single doorway with round column in center, faces northwest. Narrow doorways in both ends of building provide additional access points. Building gets its name, Temple of the Paintings, from the blocks of painted glyphs and other designs over the doorway in the main facade.
