TENOTIHUACAN




Teotihuacan (the birthplace of the gods or the place of those who have the road of the gods)

The history of Teotihuacan has never been really revealed. There are evidences of Olmecs, Zapotecs, Mixtecs and Maya civilizations. The earliest building was constructed 200 BCE. The main epoch of this city came 300 years later, though. Around 150 – 450 CE. Comparable to ancient Rome, this city expanded over 30 km2 and was home for more than 150 000 people. I am just thinking what would Romans do knowing about these cultures growing in other part of this world.
