The Temple of the Feathered Serpent, Quetzalcoatl, is one of the principal public buildings. It presented upon its four facades more than 366 sculptures with serpent heads on slabs. In later times, its principal facade of was covered by another building. At the front of the Ciudadela, which was the center of administrative and political control, the Great Compound is found giving a place to the Great Market of the metropolis. The city was surrounded by habitational groups, or districts, whose populations were linked by parentage, artisanal specialization, or affiliation to a foreign culture.
