Which civilization built Chichén Itzá?
Correct!
Chichén Itzá was one of the most important Mayan centers on the Yucatán Peninsula in what is now Mexico. The city developed over many centuries and later also shows strong cultural influences from central Mexico, often associated with the Toltecs. That's why the architecture of Chichén Itzá combines Mayan traditions with other Mesoamerican elements. Particularly famous is the step pyramid El Castillo, the Temple of Kukulkán.
