Aztec Rulers Tomb Unearthed
From the Discovery Channel:

Mexican archaeologists using ground-penetrating radar have detected underground chambers they believe contain the remains of Emperor Ahuizotl, who ruled the Aztecs when Columbus landed in the New World. It would be the first tomb of an Aztec ruler ever found.
The find could provide an extraordinary window into Aztec civilization at its apogee. Ahuizotl (ah-WEE-zoh-tuhl), an empire-builder who extended the Aztecs' reach as far as Guatemala, was the last emperor to complete his rule before the Spanish Conquest.
This guy sounds positively fascinating and what insight this will give us into the Aztec civilization! A great find for archaeologists!
Thanks for stopping by my homeschool blog.
What a cool find!
