This book details excavations in Tikal's East Plaza and its large acropolis-like mound. Supported by a single flat surface (Platform 5D-2), structures in the East Plaza maintained constancy over time. The area functioned as a gathering place for large crowds, identified by the author as Tikal's principal marketplace.
