Chichén Itzá shows two different dominant architectural styles: the Puco style, which is named after the region where the city was settled (600-900 A.C.) and the "mexicanized" style (900-1200 A.C.), which combines the influences of the Oaxacan coast and the central part of Mexico in some of its buildings such as the temple of Kukulkán, the temple of the warriors and the ball game court.GRUBE, Nikola (2011), The Mayans, an Ancient Civilization.
