The larger work contains sixteen gateways, unaccom-
panied by the protecting mounds. The gateway at the
southern anjj^Ie is covered bv an interior crescent wall
and another may be said to be jirotected by the graded
way. AVithin this enclosure are four temple mounds,
three of which have graded ])assages or avenues of
ascent to their tops. The ])rincipal one is represented in
the right hand corner in the square in the foreground.
It is ten feet high, one hundred and eighty long and
thirty-two wide. It has four graded ascents, midway
upon each side, each one being sixty feet long and
twenty-five feet wide. The next in size is the one in the
irregular-looking mound near the center of the picture.
It is eight feet high, one hundred and fifty long and
twenty wide. It has three graded ways to its top. On
the south side, instead of the graded ])assage, there is a
recess or hollow way fifty feet long by twenty wide. A
few feet from the northern passage is a small, conical
mound. In the corner and to the left of the one
described is another, but not distinctly marked. Still
another occurs near the second one described (not clearly
defined in the engraving) and close to the eastern angle
of the enclosure, having an altitude of six {Qct, and one
' hundred and twenty long by fifty broad.
