(also called the Pyramid / House of the Dwarf) The Pyramid of the Magician was built by several governors along 400 years, so what you see now is the outer layer of 4 substructures. About 125 feet above ground level, the shape of this pyramid is unusual; it is an oval with rounded ends on the north and south. This reconstruction is controversial. The back side is probably this east side, even though it has a ramp of steep stairs. The temples at the top face west, however. Archaeologists believe the building was constructed in five stages and identify five different temples, with the very top, Temple V, built in about 900 CE. Puuc style architecture
