Abstract
As with many of the pre-Spanish civilizations of Central and South America there are more questions than answers surrounding the culture of Teotihuacan. From village communities, at around 200 B.C., there developed an urban civilization in the highlands of Mexico. Over the centuries it produced huge, precisely constructed pyramids for cultic purposes. In the 8th century A.D. Teotihuacan suffered a catastrophic collapse.
