Eduardo Matos Moctezuma, Archaeologist and Author
The 1978 discovery of the Great Aztec Temple in downtown Mexico City riveted the international archaeological world. This monumental shrine dedicated to the Aztec war and rain gods had been buried beneath the city’s main plaza since the sixteenth-century Spanish conquest. Facing a project of great historical significance with demanding scientific challenges, Mexico appointed archaeologist Eduardo Matos Moctezuma to lead the multiyear, multidisciplinary team that ultimately unearthed the Great Temple and its Aztec treasures. Matos Moctezuma will discuss the professional and personal transformations that he and his team experienced as they unearthed and interpreted the heart of the Aztec world.
