Templo Mayor was an Aztec pyramid.

There aren’t many Aztec pyramids around.

The Aztecs weren’t around that long and they did a lot more conquering than building.

And then they were conquered

So most of the stones from the pyramid are currently in that church in the background.

They had really good drainage because they built the city on a lake

They sacrificed people with really cute knives

Which were kept in funky cases

The dead people got cute eyes too

The archeologists say these held fire during ceremonies, but they’re obviously for umbrella drinks

They had colourful murals

And curly haired gods.
