Abstract

An international and interdisciplinary archaeological survey was carried out in the centre of Teotihuacan, the great city of the Mesoamerican

Classic period in Central Mexico. The area covers the N2E1 quadrant of Millon’s map and is located among the Sun pyramid, the Street of the Dead and

the San Juan River. The project has the aim of identifying buried buildings and open spaces present in the area and to better assess the distribution

of buildings in time and space as well as the relationship between the studied area and the Rio San Juan. A combination of drone photogrammetry,

magnetic and electric survey, georadar and recording of surface materials was carried out.

Our integrated study allowed the detection of walls and floor surfaces, suggesting an articulated space that includes at least two construction

phases. Although it is not yet possible to define the function of the buildings, nor date them exactly, it is possible to start to investigate the role of this

part of the city and its relationship with the river.
