Cacaxtla Archeological Murals

Standard

One of the Archeological Gems of Tlaxcala are the murals discovered on its pyramid that was discovered in 1975. They are amongst the clearest and realistc pre hispanic paintings ever found. Only about 10 percent of the area has been uncovered so hopefully more paintings will come to light.
