Teotihuacan
locul unde oamenii devin zei
este orasul cel mai important al tuturor
civilizatiilor precolumbiene, situat la 40 km
nord de Ciudad de Mexico, la o altitudine de
2.000 de metri, într-o vale înconjurata de
coline. Conform legendei aici s-au nascut artele,
întelepciunea, zeii, dar si credintele
religioase. În perioada de apogeu orasul avea 42
km² si 200.000 de locuitori a caror principala
ocupatie a fost prelucrarea obsidianului.
Civilizatia începuta în jurul anului 200 î.C se
stinge cam la sfârsitul secolului IX, asa încât
la venirea spaniolilor piramidele erau deja
acoperite de vegetatie. Teotihuacan is an
ancient Mesoamerican city located 40 kilometres
northeast of modern-day Mexico City. Teotihuacan
is known today as the site of many of the most
architecturally significant Mesoamerican pyramids
built in the pre-Columbian Americas. It is the
most important and largest pre-Columbian city in
Mexico. At its zenith, perhaps in the first half
of the first millennium CE, Teotihuacan was the
largest city in the pre-Columbian Americas. After
the collapse of Teotihuacan, central Mexico was
dominated by the Toltecs of Tula until about 1150
CE.

Due to the location of the palace and the quality
of its art, it is thought the complex was home to
a high ranking priest or other dignitary. The
complex may have also been used for ceremonial
purposes.
