Often, people think of Teotihuacan as a city built by the Aztecs, but by the time they arrived to the Mexico Valley (1325 AD), it had already been abandoned for several centuries. This ignorance goes so far as to not knowing the actual name of the city: by virtue of having being impressed by the city's monolithic structures and monuments, the Aztecs named the city as the "city of the gods" (a.k.a. Teotihuacan).
Modern Archaeology has found clues of who were the "Teotihuacans": they founded the city around 100 BC and were a multi-ethnic society, which included people of Nahua, Otomi and Totonac ethnic groups. They were also a quite advanced culture, which included urban planning, irrigation, multi-floor apartment complexes and artistry that would rival that of Renaissance painters. Collapse of the Teotihuacan civilization occurred around the 7th to 8th centuries; An Olmec invasion or an internal uprising are the most likely reasons.
