MINOR PUBLIC BUILDING G

It has a rectangular basis, located east of the urban center. It measures 14 m from east to west and 27 m from north to south. It was built in two periods: In the first period the building had three areas aligned on a single axis: an entrance hall, a ceremonial hall with sidewalks and a rear enclosure. The entrance hall has niches in the wall facing the ceremonial hall, and the ceremonial hall had circular shaped friezes.

During the second period, the size was reduced to subdivide the ceremonial hall and the rear enclosure. Two-headed serpent friezes were also shaped on the dividing wall of the ceremonial hall and the rear enclosure. In this one, a T-shaped underground structure was built, where a human body was buried.
