Summary

A groundbreaking re-evaluation of the cultural influences between Chichén-Itzá and Tula challenges the prevailing consensus among researchers. While most scholars attribute distinctive elements in Chichén-Itzá to Toltec influence, George Kubler's essay argues these features likely originated in the Maya region or elsewhere before being adopted by Tula. This counter-narrative, published in Estudios de Cultura Maya, reshapes our understanding of architectural and cultural diffusion between Mesoamerican civilizations, emphasizing the need to trace origins beyond the Toltec period.
