Ehecatl was the Aztec god of the wind who didn't like sharp corners, so his temples were round. This one located at Calixtlahuaca in the Toluca Valley of Mexico was reconstructed by archaeologist José García Payón in the 1930's and surveyed by Arizona State University in the Spring of 2007.

The soundtrack is 'Winds of Creation' by Jenny and Laura Sky of Tribal Voices, a collective of British acoustic muscians. It was recorded in September 1997.

Thanks also to Catalino, Isabel, Tim and Rikki for their help with the surveying fieldwork in May 2007.
