They served as the focus of religious rites, and those of the Maya may also have functioned as astronomical observatories. The discovery in 1952 of a sarcophagus at the heart of the Mayan Pyramid of Inscriptions (built around 680 AD) at Palenque indicated that one at least was used as a tomb. The great pyramids of the Aztec capital Tenochtitlán (built in successive layers over the preceding two centuries) amazed the Conquistadors on their arrival in 1519, though this did not stop the Spanish from demolishing them and using the stone to build Mexico City's cathedral. Today the pyramids, whether ruined or restored, are among the most visited tourist sites in the Americas.* * *f pyramid* * *pirámide nf: pyramid* * *pirámide n pyramid -
