The sun stone
Archaeologists found various structures, temples, palaces, and artifacts in Tenochtitlan, the capital city of the Aztec Empire. They also discovered the Templo Mayor, which was a large pyramid dedicated to two Aztec gods, and the main plaza known as the Zocalo. These findings have provided valuable insights into the Aztec civilization and their religious practices.

The ancient Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan was located on an island in Lake Texcoco, where modern-day Mexico City now stands. When the Spanish conquistadors arrived in the 16th century, they destroyed much of the city and built Mexico City on top of the ruins, using the stones from the Aztec temples and buildings for their own construction. This is why archaeologists find evidence of the ancient Aztec capital in the center of Mexico City today.
