Archaeology Mexico Destinations
Mexico is an ideal place for those interested in archaeology. In the land known
as Mesoamerica, major cultures developed over three thousand years ago. The main
archaeological sites in the high tableland include Cuicuilco, Teotihuacan. Tula
and the Great Temple. Outstanding sites in the Oaxaca region include Monte Albán,
Mitla and Lambityeco.
For those wishing to find out more about the Mayan world, visiting Chichen Itza
and Uxmal in the Yucatan and Palenque and Bonampak in Chiapas is a must. On the
Gulf Coast, El Tajin and the La Venta Museum Park are well worth exploring. In
the west of Mexico, visiting the Purépecha ceremonial stone structures is a
rewarding experience. Finally, the city of Paquime in Chihuahua is a fascinating
example of the cultures in northern Mexico.
