Description: This magnificent pre-Hispanic city whose influence spread all over Mesoamerica is introduced with its culture traits in a text written by an eminent Mexican archaeologist.

Ninety-two color photographs illustrate the architecture, painting and sculptural work of Teotihuacan and give a picture of what this great city meant for the cultures of pre-Hispanic Mexico.

Everything from the geographical setting and the magnificent monuments of the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon, the Temple of Quetzalcóatl, the Avenue of the Dead and other structures that make up the archaeological site, to the large mural paintings of Tetitla, Tepantitla and Atetelco is described in this book.

The work is completed with a selection of the most representative archaeological finds which are displayed in the on-site museum.

Readers are invited to wonder at Teotihuacan’s grandeur.
