Important Mexica artefacts found in Mexico City

I utilized multiple sources to confirm the location of these important findings. The Templo Mayor Museum is a treasure trove of information and have a great model that explains where several of these items are. The Mexican Museum of Anthropology has a famous model (constantly updated) that also lays out the sacred precinct. The model was useful for buildings like the priest quarters and Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl. The Mexican National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) has done amazing research for decades. But recently, they have unearthed new findings, including the Tzompantli and Ball court (not pictured). They also have a great media presence; their research was important and can be found on their website and Youtube channel. Speaking with colleagues, reading other books and articles also helped, including work by Professor Manuel Aguilar and The Aztec Calendar Stone, edited by Villela and Miller was also useful. I also reviewed countless maps and satellite images.
