ball courts (Mesoamerican courts) (courts (built works), recreation structures, ... Built Environment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Playing areas and associated viewing platforms of the ancient Mesoamerican ritual ball game. The court was shaped like a capital I with serifs and oriented north–south or east–west; it represented the heavens. Players, wearing heavy padding, used elbows, knees, and hips to knock a solid rubber ball into the opponent’s end of the court.
