Talud-tablero
The talud-tablero is a typical architectural element of the metropolis mésoaméricaine of Teotihuacan. It is composed of an oblique wall, the talud , surmounted of a vertical panel, the tablero . The talud-tablero is one of the markers of the influence of Teotihuacan in remote areas, like Kaminaljuyú or Tikal in Maya territory . In XVIe century, the Aztèques, for which the ruins of Teotihuacan, old women then of several centuries, were a subject of admiration, built buildings “with the manner of” Teotihuacan, in particular the temple C and the “red Temple”, which belonged to the complex of the Templo Mayor with Tenochtitlan. Contrary to Teotihuacan, the tablero does not rest directly on the talud, but on a load-bearing wall inside masonry.
