New Airport will demolish an Archaeological Area
The Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia (National Institute of Anthropology and History, INAH) is getting the authorization ready for the construction of the New International Airport of Mexico City on the premises of one of the key regions of Mesoamerica, the former Lake Texcoco. The INAH is working under “discretion” and complete secrecy since at least 2 years on the 50 square meters, but reports only “minor discoveries”. As a matter of fact the Institute has discovered at least 28 archaeological sites and 270 spots with pre-Hispanic archaeological remains. For archaeologists and researchers these salvage works undertaken since 2012 have the sole purpose of concealing and minimizing the historical, cultural and archaeological value of the area and to justify a decision made beforehand from the desks of politicians and businessmen: the business over a new airport
