SiteType: Platforms. A large rectangular platform, and 2 peripheral platforms on rough pahoehoe. The main platform is massive with straight walls and well-paved surface. The others are both low and small-the one to the SW unpaved and separate. The main platform has a depression indicating that, while the original function may have been religious, it later served as a place of interrment for 1 or more burials.
