[Aztlan] LARGEST OFFERING IN 30 YEARS FOUND AT TEMPLO MAYOR

[michael ruggeri]

Listeros,

As you know from my post the other day on the search for Ahuizotl's  
tomb, chief archaeologist Leonardo Lopez Lujan had uncovered 3 boxes  
of offerings as they continue their dig into the chambers below the  
Tlaltecuhtli monolith but had not yet opened them. The offerings have  
been opened in a box 195 centimeters long and a meter deep with  
objects found in honor of the gods of earth, water and maize which  
inlclude wood objects, ceramics, knives, corals, sea shells and sea  
urchins. This is the largest offering uncovered in the last 30 years  
at the Templo Mayor.

This offering is from the era of Ahuizotl and digging slowly  
continues as they search for the tomb of Ahuizotl and perhaps other  
Aztec emperors.
