A Long Time Ago
The Aztecs later chose an island in the lake to found Tenochtitlan, which is the settlement that evolved into Mexico City as we now know it. Before that, this region served as the home of many wild creatures. Our forebears relied on the shores of the lake for survival. They shared the region with these beasts as well!
They Used To Roam The Land
In those days, there were creatures weighing over a hundred pounds that roamed the landscape. Experts use the term megafauna to describe this phenomenon. These huge creatures were the oversized forebears of present-day animals. It must have been one such species that left the bones behind at the site below the Santa Lucia airport.
