Theory: Transformation of Void into Armature


The Mayans designed the layout of their buildings to suit not only a large population, but also to fit into the natural landscape as well as align with Venus.
Many of the buildings are on varying different levels or set right into the hills. This leaves a large stepped and leveled plane in between. This plane can be considered a large open gathering space, however when taken into a side view the varying levels of this void come together to create an armature that acts as the connective tissue of the entire site.
