Archaeology of Teotihuacan, Mexico
Offerings at the Feathered Serpent Pyramid:
Greenstone "Resplandores"
The forms of greenstone "resplandores" are fairly
uniform, and distinguishing morphological features are minimal,
although there are significant differences in size. Their spatial
distribution by size revealed that all large "resplandores" were
concentrated in a small area under the left upper arm of individual
14-F.
