It was the administrative and culture center (not to mention the largest city) of the Teotihuacan civilization. Commonly mistaken to have been built by Aztecs, or being destroyed by Spanish conquistadores during the 16th century, this is not the case. It was home to 200,000 people during the 5th to 6th centuries - much earlier than Aztecs, who founded their capital 800 years later. Finally, it was attacked, sacked and burned by Toltec invaders during the 7th to 8th centuries.
