The section Temple of Tohil says that the exterior facing of the temple was "looted". This is a rather judgmental term, particularly as the removal apparently took place long ago (hence the intent of the actors is hard to reconstruct). Is it certain that the stone was not simply scavenged for building other structures, as was common among the Maya?

The structure is discussed in more detail in the Q'umarkaj article. In the 19th century the temple was still reasonably well preserved but was later plundered for building materials - the stone facing from many of the buildings at Q'umarkaj was plundered and used to build modern buildings in the nearby town of Santa Cruz del Quiché. This seems to have happened in the 19th and 20th centuries, I think the term "looted" is appropriate, and is certainly the term some of the sources use.
