The steps that ascend from the plaza on top of the Great Acropolis and lead to the Building of Five Stories still bear tens of glyphs finely sculpted on their risers. The date of the events recounted in this text appears to be 652 A.D. It is possible that this refers to the dedication date of the building, the completion of one of its phases or some other historical event that the ruler who commissioned the building wanted to commemorate or associate with the structure itself. |
