Teotihuacán's Hidden Archaeology
Teotihuacán was a densely settled city, not simply a collection of temples and "palaces". The careful observer will note signs of the past all around as she walks over the site. For every excavated structure, thousands of large and small mounds remain untouched. The one shown below covered in the dry grass of winter lies along the Street of the Dead north of the Sun Pyramid. Excavation would surely reveal a multi-staged platform much like those that surround the Moon Plaza (like this restored one).
