This is some real dumb shit. While there is still a lot of archaeological work to be done at Teotihuacan. It was a city center.
The liquid mercury bit was a piece of folkloric art, using the various precious metals and jewels as a representation of a landscape under the stars. The mercury represented lakes on the landscape.
Dumb shit is far dumber than the cool shit they were doing artistically.
And racist too, they say the ancient inhabitants could not have had knowledge of the solar system, because……..? I guess they didn’t have eyes to see the stars and planets at night and track them like every single other civilization on earth has done. Racist horseshit.
