Tlaxahuitl

Tlaxahuitl is the capital of Tlaxahuitlec Empire which was a great meso-american civilization before Azcapotzalco and then Aztec Triple Alliance take the domination of the region. You can see the city as it was in 1290 AD, during the golden age of the Empire. Located on Huatlatepec Lake, the city was a great religious, commercial, political and military centre. At this time, the population is around 90000 inhabitants.

City centre with temples, palaces, ball court, markets and slave markets :

We can see some chinampas around the city:

On the left, view of the barracks located at the entrance of the city :

Countryside and smaller towns next Tlaxahuitl :

These old temples on the right were not built by Tlaxahuitlec, it was actually the centre of an old city built a long time ago. Now, a village grew up next the temples and villagers reuse it :

Stone quarry :

Neyatlazaxa is new city under construction :

Huatlatepec is a vassal city-state of Tlaxahuitl:
