Aztec temple ruins discovered in Mexico City
The remains of an Aztec temple built in the late 1400s have been found in downtown Mexico City.
Along with it, archaeologists unearthed the remains of 32 men who were sacrificed during ceremonial games at the site.
The discovery offers a greater understanding of the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire more than five centuries ago.
Al Jazeera's John Holman reports from Mexico City.

There are still so many Aztec structures underneath Mexico City; the Spanish built the city on top of Tenochtitlan - the Aztec capital. I had the fortune to actually work on Templo Mayor in 1982 when I was a student at UNAM - my archeology professor, Elizabeth Baquedano was well connected to Eduardo Matos Moctezuma, who was in charge of the project at the time.

They did the same in many African countries, what they do is destroy ancient sites and rebuild them in their own way, making it look like they were the ones that built it.

They buried our temples, imposed religion and language. But they NEVER subjugated our identity, our flag is proof of that. You can ask any Mexican, we are PROUD of our Aztec (correct name would be Mexica) ancestors and we honor heritage. By the way, Mexico's correct nahua name is pronounced Meshico.

We are the tribe is a Issachar. We are part of the 12 tribes is Israel. We got conquered cuz the lord allowed it to happen due to our sacrificial practices which was for bidden after Christ dead . He was our sacrifice. .

In Hinduism, the Ancient pre Vedic God of War, Wind, Thunder and Rain is one God - Lord Indra. He is also God of the Two Worlds, Heaven and Earth, and rules over the city of God and his Angels in Heaven. There is increasing evidence of Hindu practices in Aztec and Mayan cultures.

If that is true does that hint to a possible connection between these two practicing groups? Maybe perhaps the world was like it is today many many years ago a huge connect groups of people with their own version of the ancient internet. Something happened that caused the fracture of this previous civilization but religion is hard to destroy and so these two groups continue practicing it to remember what once was.

+Evera Outta Race mixing destroys diversity, If we all mix we are all the same then there will be no diversity. Your upper middle class misguided materialistic abstract principles you get from living in your suburban bubble supported by your parents do not concern us full Mongoloid Native Americans who have suffered the most from the mass immigration of the dumbest uneducated undesirable dregs of Europe supported by slave masses and bitter vassal city states of the Meso American and Andean Native American empires. A true ethnic nation is made of a common people from a common race with a common language. If the Japanese were replaced by African Somalis even If the Somalis learned Japanese, spoke Japanese, dressed/ acted they genotypically nor phenotypically would not be Japanese.

Mexicans should still be proud of their native heritage. After all, most Mexicans still carry Native traits (brown skin complexion, black hair) because Europeans have weak recessive genes. Does it look like us Mexicans come from a Norwegian fishing village or Tenochtitlan?

Mestizos are random when it comes to heritage. Though it’s one term, you can get white looking people who are 70% or more Native or Native looking people who are less Native. We are all tied to a Native past whether you like it or not.
