An earthquake last year revealed a big surprise beneath a law school in modern-day Mexico City: a giant, colorful snakehead from the Aztec Empire.
The snakehead dates back more than 500 years, to when the Aztecs controlled the area, which at the time was part of the flourishing capital of Tenochtitlan. The sculpture was discovered after a magnitude-7.6 earthquake struck Mexico City on Sept. 19, 2022; the seismic event caused damage and changes in the topography, revealing the snakehead beneath a building that was part of a law school at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) said in a Spanish-language statement.
This article made wonder what actually happened to the aztecs. I don’t recommend looking it up
I study Mesoamerican and especially Tenochtitlan history for fun. It breaks my heart every time I get to that part in any of my books.
A fantastic fortunate find! A snake rising from the earth after an earthquake, a coatl emerging from a tlalolin. How poetic!
That headline reads like something that would be on a news broadcast in the background of a Ghostbusters movie.
Uh-oh, the Old Gods are reemerging.
