Teotihuacan
1 reportTeotihuacan is an archaeological site where structures, deposits, artifacts, and environmental evidence preserve past activity. Reconstruction depends on stratigraphic sequence, dating evidence, and site location, with provenance and stratigraphy used to separate evidence from later storytelling.
The strongest reporting on Teotihuacan separates stratigraphic context, while also considering dating evidence and architecture or material culture. Measured findings and claims about dating evidence are separated by comparing provenance and spatial context with field records; the evidence cannot remove the concern that disturbance, incomplete excavation, and later restoration can limit reconstruction.
