[Aztlan] An update on the tomb being excavated in downtown Mexico City

[michael ruggeri]

Listeros,

We have all been waiting for months for word on Lopez Lujan's  
excavations in downtown Mexico City which may have located the tomb of  
an Aztec ruler for the first time. There is an article in the Times of  
London today which re-states what we already know but with one  
additional item. They have found plaster seals at the possible  
entrance meaning this site was not looted and they found a sacrificed  
dog in front of them. Lopez Lujan considers this a sign that an  
important tomb lies beneath.

But Lopez Lujan states that the work may not be finished for many  
months or even a year. We know this is due to the machinery problems  
they are having keeping the water just below the surface from flooding  
the tomb as they work slowly to open it.

The Times of London has the story here;
