- Summary:
- The sculpture of goddess Coyolxauhqui was discovered in February 1978 hence initiating one of the most important projects of Mexican archaeology: the Templo Mayor Project. A decade later, in 1987, a Museum was opened that included not only the visit of the archaeological site but a generous sample of the archaeological evidence recovered in the place and investigated and preserved by its own team of archaeologists and restorers. "Templo Mayor. Revolución y estabilidad" (Templo Mayor. Revolution and Stability) is the exhibition of 40 years of research and conservation of the most important building of the former Tenochtitlan, celebrating 3 decades of intense work of heritage at the museum. The history of the project and the museum takes shape similar to the dual concept of the Templo Mayor, in which two opposed concepts are joined and become complementary. This new stability of the archaeological project has allowed it to rescue information that has led to a revolution in the study and awareness of the Mexica world.
