Tenochtitlán And The Main Temple And Museum - Museo del Templo Mayor: This page will show a few of the exhibits in the Museum. Page Two will show the site of the Aztec City Of Tenochtitlán.
The city's past is preserved at the Museo del Templo Mayor that features the remains of the main ceremonial pyramid, considered the most sacred site of the entire Aztec Empire.
The museum holds about 7,000 pieces (not all displayed) unearthed from other ruins in central Mexico and many of them from the more than 110 offerings to the gods, as well as sculptures, reliefs, and various other items from the Templo Mayor.
The museum has eight halls. The halls in the south wing are dedicated to Huitzilopochtli, God of War, and the halls in the north wing to Tláloc, God of Rain.
The centerpiece of the museum is the 8 ton rock discovered in 1978 by an electric grid worker at the corner of Guatemala St. and Argentina St.
Arqueologist Angel García Cook led the Equipo de Salvamento Arqueológico (Archeologic Recue Team) excavating the monolith and the five offerings nearby on April 15th, 1978.
The carved stone disk, depicts the dismembered body of the moon goddess 'Coyolxauhqui', according to investigations of archoelogist Felipe Solís.
Opened on October 12, 1987 the museum preserves, exhibits, and publishes information on archaeological materials excavated by the Proyecto Templo Mayor (Main Temple Project), managed by renowned archeologist Eduardo Matos Moctezuma.
It's an interesting museum that gives a great overview on Aztec civilization.
