synopsis
For anyone who has ever wondered just what American society was like before Europeans landed on stateside shores, A&E's Ancient Mysteries enlists the aid of renowned archeologists to offer an illuminating look as Aztec civilization. A powerful culture that would evolve from a wandering band known as the Mexica, the Aztecs would evolve into the dominating force in pre-Colombian Mexico. With this release history buff will be able to find out how the discovery of a stone decorated in relief during the 1970s eventually led to the unearthing of The Great Temple of Tenochtitlan - one of the most significant archaeological discoveries in the history of the Americas.
