Summary:	This vivid reconstruction of the religious and ethical edifice of pre-Columbian culture makes the great ruined cities of Mexico come alive again with the gods and myths of a people and civilization long extinct. The author relates the startling findings of her excavations at Teotihuacan, once a great metropolis of an ancient empire that gave its gods and its theology to the conquering Aztecs.
