Teotihuacan (“Place of the Gods”) Looking from the Pyramid of the Moon down the Avenue of the Dead towards the Pyramid of the Sun <strong>The</strong> Aztecs gave this place its present name and performed rituals here. It provided the model grid system for the layout of Tenochtitlan.
Tula (Centre of the Toltec Empire c. 900-1150 CE) As with Teotihuacan, the Aztecs folded the Toltecs into their myths. •Aztec rulers were said to be descended from the Toltecs. •<strong>The</strong> Aztecs told stories about Tula’s past downfall and how the ruler-god Quetzalcoatl had fled the city at its time of moral decline.
