TEOTIHUACAN FLOURISHES

1 CE Cities are flourishing. Pyramids, courts and temples are being built and major metropolises have emerged, including Tikal (established in 550 BCE), soon-tobe-abandoned Cerros and El Mirador – the latter previously flourishing since 600 BCE. Having grown since 200 BCE, the city of Teotihuacan becomes the largest in Mesoamerica – key for trade, religion and culture. Teotihuacan’s largest building, Pyramid of the Sun, is built in 200 CE.
