Uxmal (Yucatec Mayan: Óoxmáal) is an ancient Maya city of the Classical period in present-day Mexico. It is considered one of the most important archaeological sites of Mayan culture. The name Uxmal means 'thrice-built' in the Mayan language, referring to the many layers of construction of its most imposing structure (actually, five stages of construction have been identified). Here photographed, the Pyramid of the Magician (Spanish: Pirámide del adivino), the tallest and most recognizable structure in Uxmal. The exact height of the pyramid is in dispute and has been reported as tall as 40m (the accepted median height is 35m (115 feet), with the base measuring approximately 69m by 49m (227 by 162 ft)). It has been considered the most distinctive Maya structure on the Yucatán Peninsula because of its high, rounded, steep sides and unusual elliptical base.
