Pyramids of Death

Perhaps you remember seeing them as a photo insert in a history textbook, or in candy coated Technicolor in a shoebox of old postcards. The Pyramids of Teotihuacán. Familiar. Massive. Boring. Teotihuacán—the site of a civilization that appeared out of nowhere to build some of the largest pyramids in the world, only to vanish almost one thousand years later—strangely plays second fiddle to other Pre-Hispanic archaeological sites in the Americas.

Following recent ground-breaking excavations that have nearly turned on its head what was known and what was hypothesized about the civilization of Teotihuacán, Explorer believes that Teotihuacán deserves a second look.
