Temple 1 is a significant archaeological site located in the ancient city of Tikal, part of the Maya civilization in present-day Guatemala. This temple, also known as Temple I or the Temple of the Great Jaguar, was built around 732 AD and served as a funerary monument for the ruler Ah Cacao. Standing at approximately 47 meters (154 feet) tall, Temple 1 is one of the tallest structures in Tikal. Its steep steps lead to a temple at the top, which features a roof comb that adds to its height. The temple is adorned with intricate carvings and inscriptions that reflect the artistic and architectural achievements of the Maya people.
