Textual sources regarding Chichen Itza?

by cold1nfern0

I have an assignment which requires 2 textual sources on your site, mine being Chichen Itza. I have scoured all of the top google results and haven't found anything. These sources can be diary entries, personal accounts, poems, observations or any of that sort. Am I missing out on any sort of databases which may help me? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

The Bishop de Landa's Relación de las cosas de Yucatán has several mentions of Chichen Itza. It's easy enough to find translated passages online and there's a full translation published as Yucatan Before and After the Conquest.
