Asset Overview

Mesh-only printable and measurable 3D model of Building B. This Early Classic shrine was excavated by Raymond Merwin in 1911 (Harvard University). The excavations uncovered a series of burials under the floor and in the rooms. The discoveries led to the first ceramic-based chronology of the ancient Maya civilization. It later turned out that this temple encased an even earlier structure that was also well-preserved. Check its reconstruction (it incorporates a 3D scan of one of the stucco reliefs) here: https://skfb.ly/IuLn.
