698th Anniversary Of The Founding Of Mexico-Tenochtitlán

View of the representation of a tzompantli, a mortuary offering in which the heads or skulls of defeated warriors were impaled in honour of the deities of pre-Hispanic Mexico, placed in the Zocalo of Mexico City on the occasion of the 698th anniversary of the founding of Tenochtitlan, the Mexica capital, where they shared their knowledge and honoured their ancestors on the occasion of the ''Zenithal Passage'', the moment when the sun took a completely perpendicular position.
