@theprecolumbiangentleman: Mexico City is literally built over the ancient Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan. This video shows you how both cities are still interconnected. I know there will be more great discoveries made as the city and it’s infrastructure expands and modernizes. Have you seen this area on your visit to Mexico City ? #precolumbian #aztec #mexico #ancient #History

most churches or cathedrals were built on top of piramids, due to the lack of indigenous people trying to convert to catholic so spaniard built the churches on top of their temples.

I don’t know about Mexican history specifically but the church has a habit of building cathedrals on top of pagan holy sites.

If you look at a lot of buildings there used the stones from the pyramids to build

If you go to the national palace where Diego Rivera’s mural is you can see the ruins where Moctezuma use to live in

As an archaeologist student, this happens a lot! Places get buried under newer layers especially in places with longggg history. Rome has places build on top of other places on top of another. This is just how things were
