TIKAL, 47 



given on Plates LXXI. to LXXIV. Of the two fragments of these beams bought at 

 Flores by Mr. J. W. Boddam-Whetham, one is restored to its place in the photograph 

 and drawing on Plates LXXI. and LXXIV., and a photograph of the other fragment 

 is given on Plate LXXI. 



Temple B. (Plates LXIX. and LXXV.) 



The foundation-mound of this Temple appears to be divided into three stages 

 measuring about 80 feet on the slopes. The height of the Temple itself, so far as I 

 could measure it from the foot of the doorway to the top of the superstructure, is 

 about 51 feet. 



Some of the exterior ornament can be seen in the photographs. The beams over the 

 middle doorway are ornamented with carving, now much decayed. 



Temple C. (Plates LXIX., LXXYL, a, and LXXVII. & LXXVIII.) 



The base of the foundation-mound measures 184 feet by 168 feet. A measurement 

 taken on the front slope from the ground to the foot of the Temple gave 112 feet. 



The Temple contains two chambers only. The lintel of the outer doorway has 

 disappeared. The beams which formed the lintel of the inner doorway are possibly 

 those removed at the instance of Dr. Bernoulli, and are figured on Plates LXXVII. 

 and LXXVIII. 



Temple D. (Plate LXXVL, b.) 



The dimensions of this Temple were not taken, but the two men standing in front of 

 the doorway in the photograph give some measure of its great size. 



The interior of the Temple was entirely blocked up with fallen masonry, which we 

 were unable to remove. 



Temple E. (Plate LXXIX.) 



This Temple is by far the largest of the whole group. It can be seen in the distance 

 in the photograph on Plate LXVIIL, a. The foundation-mound stands back on a 

 terrace 11 feet high, and the mound itself measures 2 SO feet across the base and
