The pyramid of the magician

The pyramid of the magician is one of the pyramids most beautiful, colorful and mysterious in the maya area. Reaches up to 35 meters, and is the only one with an oval base and the steps are unusually narrow and steep, surpassing almost always 45 degrees (it is believed this was arranged with the intention that those who might go up to the temple could not raise the head during the ascent or descent)
He said the american researcher John Lloyd Stephens in his Incidents of travel in the early 1840s, legend has it that this building was constructed in a single night by a dwarf, born from an egg found by a witch near Uxmal. The child was born with the ability to divine the future, for what was called the seer.
