The  pyramids  of  Teotihuacan  are  one  of  the  oldest  pyramids  in are  history. They  are  located  in  Mexico  about  30miles  from  one  of  the  biggest  city’s  in  the  world  known  as  Mexico  City.  The  original  date  of  theses  pyramids  are  unknown  but  should  be  older then 200  a.d.  Also  for  a  time  period  the  Aztec  had  wondered  off  from  what  they  have  been told  by  their  gods, and  had  stumbled  upon  the  pyramids  of  Teotihuacan  to  have  as  there own  land. These  magnificent  pyramids  are  a  big  part  of  history  and  should  be  conserved for  future  generations  to  be  able  to  learn  from  them. If  these  Pyramids  would  be  destroyed  there  would  be  allot  off  useful   information gone. We  are  still  to  this  day  still  learning  and gaining knowledge  from studying  them.

There  are  many  important  historical  impacts   that  have  shaped  the  pyramids.  From  the  Mayans  having  it  has  there  kingdom. To  the  Aztec’s  defeat  of  Cortez  and his Spanish  armed  forces.Sciences  all  off  this  they  are  just used  for  a tourist  site. For  use  to  ask  who  had built these Pyramids we have  to  know  that  the  builders  are  still  to  this  day unknown. Some  general  knowledge  is  That  the  two  biggest  of the  pyramids  are  the  sun  and  the  moon  pyramids. They  are  a representation  of  a  strong  connection  that  the  people  had  both  with  their  gods  and  with  the  universe.

To  actually  say  what  era  the  pyramids  purpose  was  or  what  they  worked for  is  asking  what  many  of  the  different  tribal  backgrounds  have  used  them  for. You called point  out  what  the  Aztec  people  used them  for. It  was  there  place  of  worship, and gathering were all put to use during there time period. For the actually archectual structure of the pyramids was magnificiant and way ahead of its structurally era. You could compare it to the Great Pyramids of Egypt. Saying that they are both very important structures. just as the Egyptian pyramids they are Humunguess in size and have barrel grounds in them for there kings in queens just as Teotihuacan do for there speretual leaders. They are simular in ways like the way they align up with each other. Even if they are so far apart from each other there functions are about the same throughout history. having different rulers over them and gods coming down are just some of the similarities they have. Also having  1used as dramatic stage for religious rituals and civic ceremonies.

3Which making them very unusual are exedingly ahead of its structurally time period. A fact about the Sun and the Moon pyramid is that they are actually aligned up with the sun and the moon. The main street that connects them is called “Street of Dead” which in many cases could be interesting for why they called it that. Known for sightings of there gods for sacrifices or tolls they would receive from them, also giving the people a greater knowledge of the world. I think of the gods they said they would come down from the sky “other worldly biegns”. Which has made a very huge impact on what is being discovered. A cool thing about the name is that it means 1The Place Where Men Become Gods. Which was very interesting men becoming gods does that mean that they were given powers are just tools that made them like the gods.

Thought time they have been worked on and built on from different cultural groups forming there own certain structural features. For each time they were controlled by a group of people they had vast land to live off of. from the tools that were given to them had made there lives allot easier and made them able to think for them selves. There is contriverse on how they received these gifts and how they were used in different eras.

For most part people just know that these pyramids of Teotihuacan are located in Mexico, and probably that the Aztec had apart to do with them. They are a significant part of Mexican history to show How we had started off. Their concerns for this place is some were to go on a family vacation or road trip. Some 2Archologists today are still stunned to how anyone would be able to pick up those thousand pound bricks. How they would be able to carried them or even move them from one spot to the next. Which i would think is mind boggling.

My thought how the Teotihuacan Pyramids is that we need to look deeper then what facts are given to use to really be able to learn and define what your thoughts are own the pyramids. I am also think that it is a very good thing to be able to know about what has gone down in history and in the very magnificent Structural grounds. For that i conclude that i am glad that i as able to go in depth about Teotihuacan.
