This is the Pyramid of the Sun on the "road of the dead" in the great Mexican city of Teotihuacán.

Dude, pretty sweet work.

Could I obtain your permission to add it to the America MOD? And have you made a Wonder Splash for it? I really see it as more a Wonder than an improvement.

Nice building

SKILORD: Sure, mis files son tus files.
It'd be nice if you could add a reference in your readme though.
Beside that, I can't say it often enough: Let's keep the Internet a free space and let's share our creativity.

Here's the splash:

Thanks I needed this building. Did you know that an old story says that if you climb the pyramid, you will live 10 years longer.

Yoda: No, I didn't know it. I haven't been to Teotihuacán yet. Now comes the clue: I've actually never been physically to Mexico :suicide:

^The Pyramid of the Sun was one of the tallest and most massive structures in ancient America, in volumen even surpassing the
Egyptian pyramids. It was situated in Teotihuacan, north-east of today's Mexico City, which was the biggest metropolis in
ancient America and maybe in its heydays even the biggest city of the world.Approximately between the first century AD and
600AD, the city dominated the Mexican highland and its cultural and economic influence reached deep into the Maya lands of
Yucatán.
^ Teotihuacán was a multi-ethnic center with sperate quarters for different tribes from all over Mexico. The wealth and power
of the city was primarily based on its economic and productive activity, but it was also a great religious center as
certified by the monumental Miccaotli or"Road of the Dead", a road used for ceremonies and most definitely also for human sacrifice,
with the Pyramid of the Moon and the Pyramid of the Sun that still dominate the area.

This is by way of a request for a wonder that, imho, should have made it into the original game what with the Aztecs being included and all.

The Great Temple of Tenochtitlan.

I've attached a couple pics in case anyone wants to take this up.
