In 1808 Napoleon invaded Spain and deposed the king. Overnight, Hispanics were forced to confront modernity and look beyond monarchy and religion for new sources of authority.

Al decir de fray Bernardino de Sahagún (1999), dentro de un cuadrángulo delimitado por un muro había en total 78 edificios, entre los que sobresalía el principal: el Templo Mayor. Algunos de éstos han sido identificados por trabajos arqueológicos realizados en el área a lo largo del siglo XX, y una buena parte como resultado de las intervenciones realizadas por el Programa de Arqueología Urbana del INAH a finales del siglo XX e inicios del xxi. En cuant...
