Désolé, cet article est seulement disponible en Anglais Américain et Espagnol Mexicain.

Gran Besamento mexicaOn Argentina street, between Donceles and Luis González Obregón, the Urban Archaeology Program of the INAH made a spectacular discovery. These are the remains of a large base from the central district of Tenochtitlan. Atop it were temples, religious and administrative buildings of the ancient city. These vestiges are from multiple construction stages (between 1440 and 1521) and are barely two meters below the street level. Mexico City's Aztec past is very close. Come discover it!
