68. Ball Court at Monte Alban. The ground plan has the double “T” shape. On each side of the court are steep, sloping “talud” walls. There are still some remains of the four temples on the upper slanted walls, from which the course of the game could be followed. A round stone in the center of the court may have been used to bounce a ball at the beginning of the game.
