Being based on the general Mesoamerican architectural traditions, these pyramids relied on intricate carved stone in order to create a stairstep design.
For the Classic Period of the Mayas, the following major classes of stone sculpture may be distinguished. 1  Stelas. 2  Lintels spanning doorways, and panels and tablets set in the walls and piers of buildings and the sides of platforms. 3  Altars, rounded or rectangular, sometimes resting on three or four boulder-like legs.
