Chichen Itza, Yucatan, Mexico

The cult of Kukulkan originated with the Maya. The cult's vast temple complex at Chichen Itza was built on wealth generated by the value of esoteric knowledge: high priests who communicated with the great deity that linked heaven and earth. Their stock in trade was astronomical knowledge that translated into agricultural success. [2013]
