Constant curvature black holes are constructed by identifying points in anti-de Sitter space. In n dimensions, the resulting topology is R^{n-1} * S_1, as opposed to the usual R^2 * S_{n-2} Schwarzschild black hole, and the corresponding causal structure is displayed by a (n-1)-dimensional picture, as opposed to the usual 2-dimensional Kruskal diagram. The five dimensional case, which can be embedded in a Chern-Simons supergravity theory, is analyzed in detail.
