This rare black and white 16 mm film was taken by American tourists in Mexico in the late 1920's. Here they visit the famous temples of the Ancient Mexico, built by the Teotihuacan Culture from 100-650 CE. The tourists climb the massive Temple of the Sun, and they also film the Temple of the Moon and Temple of the Feathered Serpent. Also included is amazing footage of an actual archeological excavation taking place at the site in the 1920's.
