The “ball” is facing to our right, in profile. You can make out the eyebrows, nose, and ear.

An apparent stone scoreboard has been discovered at the Chichen Itza archaeological site in southeastern Mexico, archaeologists have said.
So what was the score?

Didn’t they decapitate the losing teams?
The reason why we ask which is ‘ahead’ in the score today.

I was fortunate to tour Chichen Itza many years ago (maybe 30 or so?). Visitors were still allowed to climb the Temple of Kukulkan. It was fascinating, and the trip remains one of my most vivid memories.
I know it is not in vogue to visit Mexico these days, but I would encourage anyone going to Cancun to book a bus tour trip to see Chichen Itza.

Carving stone to keep score of a ball game seems ... extreme.

“So what was the score?”
The same as every other soccer game ever.......over a thousand years later 0-0.

I also visited many years ago, 1966 when my parents took the family on an extended Yucatan adventure. 8 years old I climbed every one of those structures before they were restricted. Cozumel, Merida, Uxmal, Chichen Itza in the mid 60’s, truly a great trip and adventure. My long departed parents were the best...
